The GATA-factor elt-2 is essential for formation of the Caenorhabditis elegans intestine.

Developmental biology - 15 Jun 1998

Fukushige T, Hawkins M G, McGhee J D

Abstract excerpt

The Caenorhabditis elegans elt-2 gene encodes a single-finger GATA factor, previously cloned by virtue of its binding to a tandem pair of GATA sites that control the gut-specific ges-1 esterase gene. In the present paper, we show that elt-2 expression is completely gut specific, beginning when the embryonic gut has only two cells (one cell cycle prior to ges-1 expression) and continuing in every cell of the gut...
