Expression of the Sex-lethal gene is controlled at multiple levels during Drosophila oogenesis.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Jul 1993

Abstract excerpt

In addition to controlling somatic sexual development in Drosophila melanogaster, the Sex-lethal (Sxl) gene is required for proper differentiation of female germ cells. To investigate its role in germ-line development, we have examined the expression of Sxl in wild-type ovaries and ovaries that are defective in early steps of germ cell differentiation. As in the soma, the basic mechanism for on/off regulation of...
