Abstract excerpt
Homeodomain proteins regulate diverse developmental processes in a wide range of organisms, yet bind in vitro to DNA sequences that are remarkably similar. This has raised the fundamental question of how target gene specificity is achieved in vivo. The Drosophila fushi tarazu protein (Ftz) contai...
