Abstract excerpt
The segment polarity gene cubitus interruptus (ci) is required to maintain expression of the wingless gene and to specify naked cuticle within each epidermal segment. Antibodies were generated against the ci protein and used to analyze its pattern of expression. By stage 11, post-transcriptional regulation of ci is observed. ci transcript levels are uniform across the anterior compartment, but protein levels are...
