Roles of the Notch gene in Drosophila wing morphogenesis.
Mechanisms of development - 1 May 1994
de Celis J F, García-Bellido A
Abstract excerpt
The Notch gene encodes a transmembrane protein that functions as a receptor of intercellular signals in many developmental processes of Drosophila. We study here the Notch function in wing morphogenesis and vein patterning in genetic mosaics of both Notch null and Notch gain-of-function alleles....
