... developmental processes. In the Drosophila embryo, deficiency in Notch signalling results in neural hyperplasia, commonly referred to as the neurogenic phenotype. We identify a novel maternal neurogenic gene, neurotic , and show that it is essential for Notch signalling. neurotic encodes a Drosophila homolog...

...Yi Rao; Rolf Bodmer; Lily Y. Jan; Y. N. Jan ABSTRACT big brain ( bib ) is one of the six known zygotic neurogenic genes involved in the decision of an ectodermal cell to take on the neurogenic or the epidermogenic cell fate. Previous studies suggest that bib functions in a pathway separate from...
