Abstract excerpt
The cut gene in Drosophila is necessary in at least one cell type, the external sensory organs, for proper cell type specification and morphogenesis. It is also expressed in a variety of other tissues, where its function is less well characterized. Previous work has demonstrated that mutations af...
