Repression of Drosophila photoreceptor cell fate through cooperative action of two transcriptional repressors Yan and Tramtrack.

Genetics - 1 Nov 1997

Lai Z C, Fetchko M, Li Y

Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila yan gene encodes an E twenty-six (ETS) domain nuclear protein with a transcription repressor activity that can be downregulated through phosphorylation by mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). Before photoreceptor precursor cells commit to a particular cell fate, Yan is required to maintain them in an undifferentiated state. We report here identification of tramtrack (ttk) mutations that act as...
