Abstract excerpt
In the absence of the Drosophila abl protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK), loss-of-function mutations in either disabled or prospero have dominant phenotypic effects on embryonic development. Molecular and genetic characterizations indicate that the products of these genes interact with the abl PTK by different mechanisms. The interaction between abl and prospero, which encodes a nuclear protein required for correct...
