Abstract excerpt
The homeotic genes of the bithorax complex are required, among other things, for establishing the patterns of sensory organs in the embryonic peripheral nervous system (PNS). However, the molecular mechanisms by which these genes affect pattern formation in the PNS are not understood and other genes that function in this pathway are not characterized. Here we report the phenotypic and molecular analysis of one...
