Abstract excerpt
The steroid hormone 20-hydroxyecdysone (20HE) and the Broad-Complex locus (BRC) are involved in regulating developmental changes in gene expression around the time of metamorphosis in Drosophila. We have investigated the regulatory interactions between 20HE, BRC, and a set of genes expressed in the fat body of third-instar Drosophila larvae. RNA levels for two hormone-inducible genes, Larval Serum Protein-2 and...
