Different modes of enhancer-specific regulation by Runt and Even-skipped during Drosophila segmentation
The initial metameric expression of the Drosophila sloppy paired 1 (slp1) gene is controlled by two distinct cis-regulatory DNA elements that interact in a nonadditive manner to integrate inputs from transcription factors encoded by the pair-rule segmentation genes. We performed chromatin immunoprecipitation on reporter genes containing these elements in different embryonic genotypes to investi...
متن کاملCombinatorial activation and concentration-dependent repression of the Drosophila even skipped stripe 3+7 enhancer.
Despite years of study, the precise mechanisms that control position-specific gene expression during development are not understood. Here, we analyze an enhancer element from the even skipped (eve) gene, which activates and positions two stripes of expression (stripes 3 and 7) in blastoderm stage Drosophila embryos. Previous genetic studies showed that the JAK-STAT pathway is required for full ...
متن کاملMolecular analysis of even-skipped mutants in Drosophila development.
The homeo box gene even-skipped (eve) plays a key role in the regulation of the Drosophila segmentation pattern. eve- embryos lack segment borders and show altered activities of several segmentation genes, including fushi tarazu (ftz), engrailed (en), and wingless (wg). Here, we present evidence that eve influences its own expression in a tissue-specific manner. Each of four different eve mutat...
متن کاملCellular resolution models for even skipped regulation in the entire Drosophila embryo
Transcriptional control ensures genes are expressed in the right amounts at the correct times and locations. Understanding quantitatively how regulatory systems convert input signals to appropriate outputs remains a challenge. For the first time, we successfully model even skipped (eve) stripes 2 and 3+7 across the entire fly embryo at cellular resolution. A straightforward statistical relation...
متن کاملSpecification of Drosophila aCC motoneuron identity by a genetic cascade involving even-skipped, grain and zfh1.
During nervous system development, combinatorial codes of regulators act to specify different neuronal subclasses. However, within any given subclass, there exists a further refinement, apparent in Drosophila and C. elegans at single-cell resolution. The mechanisms that act to specify final and unique neuronal cell fates are still unclear. In the Drosophila embryo, one well-studied motoneuron s...
