Specification of the Drosophila CNS midline cell lineage: direct control of single-minded transcription by dorsal/ventral patterning genes.
Gene expression - 1 Jan 1998
Kasai Y, Stahl S, Crews S
Abstract excerpt
The Drosophila CNS consists of a bilaterally symmetric group of neurons separated by a discrete group of CNS midline cells. The specification of the CNS midline cell lineage requires transcription of the single-minded gene. Genetic evidence suggests that a group of transcription factors, includin...
