scratch, a pan-neural gene encoding a zinc finger protein related to snail, promotes neuronal development.

Genes & development - 1 Oct 1995

Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila scratch (scrt) gene is expressed in most or all neuronal precursor cells and encodes a predicted zinc finger transcription factor closely related to the product of the mesoderm determination gene snail (sna). Adult flies homozygous for scrt null alleles have a reduced number of photoreceptors in the eye, and embryos lacking the function of both scrt and the pan-neural gene deadpan (dpn), which...
