TI - Dorsal-ventral patterning of the Drosophila embryo T2 - The legacy of Drosophila genetics : from 'defining the gene' to 'analyzing genome function', PY - 2008/// CY - London PB - Henry Stewart Talks KW - Drosophila KW - genetics N1 - Animated audio-visual presentation with synchronized narration; Title from title frames; Contents: The dorsal-ventral patterning of the early Drosophila embryo is controlled by a sequence-specific transcription factor called Dorsal, which is related to mammalian NF-κB -- The Dorsal protein is distributed in a broad nuclear gradient, which generates different thresholds of gene activity -- The mechanisms underlying these thresholds are likely to be relevant to a host of developmental processes in metazoan embryos; Access restricted to subscribers UR - https://hstalks.com/bs/979/ UR - https://hstalks.com/bs/p/283/ ER -
