Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Receptors of the Notch family affect the determination of many cell types. In the Drosophila eye, Notch antagonises the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) protein atonal, which is required for R8 photoreceptor determination. Similar antagonism between Notch and proneural bHLH proteins regulates most neural cell determination, however, it is uncertain whether the mechanisms are similar in all cases. Here,...
