Abstract excerpt
Many biological processes appear to be controlled by functionally redundant genes or pathways, but it has proven difficult to understand the nature of this redundancy. Here, we have analyzed a redundant regulatory interaction between the Drosophila transcription factor zeste and the homeotic gene...
