Genetic and molecular analysis of fs(1)h, a maternal effect homeotic gene in Drosophila.

abstract：:Defects in heart development are the most common congenital abnormalities in humans, providing a strong incentive to learn more about the underlying causes. Previous studies have implicated the metalloprotease-disintegrins ADAMs (a disintegrin and metalloprotease) 17 and 19 as well as heparin binding EGF-like growth f...
