Unique and redundant functions of C. elegans HP1 proteins in post-embryonic development.

abstract：:Suppression of wing fate and specification of haltere fate in Drosophila by the homeotic gene Ultrabithorax is a classical example of Hox regulation of serial homology (Lewis, E.B. 1978. Nature 276, 565-570) and has served as a paradigm for understanding homeotic gene function. We have used DNA microarray analyses to ...
