Regulation of twin of eyeless during Drosophila development.

Gene expression patterns : GEP - 1 Mar 2016

Skottheim Honn John, Johansson Linn, Rasmuson Lestander Åsa

Abstract excerpt

The Pax-6 protein is vital for eye development in all seeing animals, from sea urchins to humans. Either of the Pax6 genes in Drosophila (twin of eyeless and eyeless) can induce a gene cascade leading to formation of entire eyes when expressed ectopically. The twin of eyeless (toy) gene in Drosophila is expressed in the anterior region of the early fly embryo. At later stages it is expressed in the brain, ventral...
