Abstract

In the absence of cut gene activity in Drosophila, external sensory organs are transformed into chordotonal organs. Here we show that the cut locus encodes a large protein containing a homoeodomain and is expressed in nuclei of cells in external sensory organs but not in cells within chordotonal organs.

摘要

在果蝇中若不存在cut基因活性，外部感觉器官会转变为弦音器官。我们在此表明，cut基因座编码一种含有同源异型结构域的大蛋白，且在外部感觉器官的细胞核中表达，但不在弦音器官的细胞中表达。
