Abstract excerpt
The Drosophila gene pointed (pnt) is required for the differentiation of a number of tissues during embryogenesis, including the ventral ectoderm, the nervous system, the tracheal system and certain muscle fibers. The phenotypes associated with strong pointed alleles are reflected by a complex po...
