Stereotypic founder cell patterning and embryonic muscle formation in Drosophila require nautilus (MyoD) gene function.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 27 Mar 2007

Wei Qin, Rong Yikang, Paterson Bruce M

Abstract excerpt

nautilus is the only MyoD-related gene in Drosophila. Nautilus expression begins around stage 9 at full germ-band extension in a subset of mesodermal cells organized in a stereotypic pattern in each hemisegment. The muscle founder cell marker Duf-LacZ, produced by the enhancer trap line rP298LacZ, is coexpressed in numerous Nautilus-positive cells when founders first appear. Founders entrain muscle identity...
