Journal ArticleDOI
A Drosophila growth factor homolog, decapentaplegic, regulates homeotic gene expression within and across germ layers during midgut morphogenesis.
TL;DR: It is proposed that extracellular dpp protein regulates gut morphogenesis, in part, by regulating homeotic gene expression in the visceral mesoderm and endoderm of the developing midgut.
Journal ArticleDOI
The prospero gene specifies cell fates in the Drosophila central nervous system
TL;DR: The prospero gene is a novel type of gene expressed in neuroblasts and known to specify neuronal fate in the Drosophila central nervous system, and is expressed in a subset of neuroblast, sensory neuron precursors, and identified glial precursor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microtubules Enable the Planar Cell Polarity of Airway Cilia
TL;DR: It is shown that basal bodies dock after polarity of PCP proteins is established and are polarized nearly simultaneously, and that refinement of basal body/cilium orientation continues during airway epithelial development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dorsoventral patterning in the Drosophila central nervous system: the intermediate neuroblasts defective homeobox gene specifies intermediate column identity
Joseph B. Weiss,Tonia Von Ohlen,Dervla M. Mellerick,Gregory R. Dressler,Chris Q. Doe,Chris Q. Doe,Matthew P. Scott +6 more
TL;DR: A new Drosophila homeobox gene is described, intermediate neuroblasts defective (ind), which is expressed specifically in the intermediate column cells, raising the possibility that dorsoventral patterning within the central nervous system is evolutionarily conserved.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Drosophila snr1 and brm proteins are related to yeast SWI/SNF proteins and are components of a large protein complex.
Andrew K. Dingwall,Shelley J. Beek,Claire M. McCallum,John W. Tamkun,Ganjam V. Kalpana,Stephen P. Goff,Matthew P. Scott +6 more
TL;DR: Findings provide direct evidence for conservation of the SWI/SNF complex in higher eucaryotes and suggest that the Drosophila brm/snr1 complex plays an important role in maintaining homeotic gene transcription during development by counteracting the repressive effects of chromatin.
