Over the past several decades, anatomical and electrophysiological analyses have demonstrated that the electrical activity of neurons is required for development of the precise patterns of synaptic connectivity found in the adult central nervous system. However, knowledge of the molecular cascades t
In Drosophila, dorsal mesodermal specification is regulated by the homeobox genes tinman and bagpipe. Vertebrate homologs of tinman and bagpipe have been isolated in various species. Moreover, there are at least four different genes related to tinman in the vertebrate, which indicates that this gene
Pattern formation of the developing vertebrate limb is mainly controlled by the zone of polarizing activity (ZPA) and the apical ectodermal ridge (AER) which may act as sources of diffusing morphogens. These sources are tightly interconnected and maintained by positive feedback and, together with th
The proctodeum of the Drosophila embryo originates from the posterior end of the blastoderm and forms the hindgut. By enhancer-trap mutagenesis, using a P-element-lacZ vector, we identified a mutation that caused degeneration of the proctodeum during shortening of the germ band and named it aproctou
