Genetic characterization of the homeodomain-independent activity of the Drosophila fushi tarazu gene product.

Genetics - 1 Feb 1996

Hyduk D, Percival-Smith A

Abstract excerpt

The gene product of fushi tarazu (FTZ) has a homeodomain (HD)-independent activity. Ectopic expression of a FTZ protein that lacks half the HD in embryos results in the anti-ftz phenotype. We have characterized this FTZ HD-independent activity further. Ectopic expression of the HD-independent FTZ activity, in the absence of FTZ activity expressed from the endogenous ftz gene, was sufficient to result in the...
