Functional hierarchy and phenotypic suppression among Drosophila homeotic genes: the labial and empty spiracles genes.

The EMBO journal - 15 Jan 1996

Macías A, Morata G

Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila homeotic cluster (HOM-C) is made up of eight genes, which specify the identity of cephalic, thoracic and abdominal segments. These genes can be ordered in a hierarchy which correlates with their position along the 5'-3' transcriptional direction. When they are absent, thoracic and abdominal body segments develop the same'ground' pattern, which is thoracic-like but also includes cephalic structures...
