Mediation of Drosophila head development by gap-like segmentation genes.

Nature - 2 Aug 1990

Cohen S M, Jürgens G

Abstract excerpt

The first phase of embryonic development in Drosophila consists of the elaboration and interpretation of maternally encoded information that specifies spatial pattern in the embryo. The product of the maternal gene bicoid (bcd) is thought to organize the anterior pattern of the embryo. Although the bcd transcript is localized at the anterior pole of the egg the bcd protein forms a stable concentration gradient...
