Abstrakt: |
Growth and cell fate in the anterior-posterior (A/P) axis of the developing wing of Drosophila melanogaster are controlled by a stripe of cells bisecting the axis called the A/P organizer. Hedgehog (Hh) signaling from posterior to anterior cells induces the organizer. Several Hh-responsive genes expressed by cells of the organizer mediate its patterning activity. The Hh-signaling pathway controls the post-translational modification of the transcription factor Cubitus-interruptus (Ci) and the resulting local activation of Ci is required for the correct location of the A/P organizer. |
