Abstract excerpt
The Antennapedia-class homeobox genes are likely to play a role in the specification of neuronal identities in invertebrates. The leech Hirudo medicinalis, a species well-suited for the analysis of these genes at the level of identified neurons, contains homologs of many Antennapedia-class and related genes. The expression pattern in the central nervous system of four leech homebox genes was examined in detail....
