Abstract excerpt
The pair-rule gene, odd-paired (opa), is essential for parasegmental subdivision of the Drosophila embryo. In addition to its previously defined role in the activation of wingless (wg) in odd parasegments, we find that opa is required for the timely activation of wg in the remaining parasegments and for the timely activation of engrailed (en) in all parasegments. opa encodes a zinc finger protein with fingers...
