Inhibition of cell fate in Drosophila by Enhancer of split genes.
Mechanisms of development - 1 Jun 1995
Tata F, Hartley D A
Abstract excerpt
The neurogenic genes of Drosophila act during many different times and places during development. It is thought their role is to repress cell fate within a group of equivalent cells and thus allow the singling out of discrete numbers of precursors. Amongst the genes at the neurogenic locus, Enhancer of split is a family of seven related genes that encode proteins containing the basic helix-loop-helix motif...
