A screen for modifiers of Deformed function in Drosophila.

Genetics - 1 Aug 1995

Harding K W, Gellon G, McGinnis N, McGinnis W

Abstract excerpt

Proteins produced by the homeotic genes of the Hox family assign different identifies to cells on the anterior/posterior axis. Relatively little is known about the signalling pathways that modulate their activities or the factors with which they interact to assign specific segmental identifies. To identify genes that might encode such functions, we performed a screen for second site mutations that reduce the...
