The Drosophila SOX-domain protein Dichaete is required for the development of the central nervous system midline.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Oct 1998

Soriano N S, Russell S

Abstract excerpt

SOX-domain proteins are a class of developmentally important transcriptional regulators related to the mammalian testis determining factor SRY. In common with other SOX-domain genes, the Drosophila Dichaete gene has a dynamic expression profile in the developing central nervous system, including...
