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 regu...
