araucan and caupolican, Two Members of the Novel Iroquois Complex, Encode Homeoproteins That Control Proneural and Vein-Forming Genes

Abstract: In Drosophila imaginal wing discs, the achaete-scute (ac-sc) proneural genes and rhomboid (veinlet) are expressed in highly resolved patterns that prefigure the positions of sensory organs and wing veins, respectively. It is thought that these patterns are generated by a combination of factors (a prepattern) regulating these genes. We provide evidence for the existence of this prepattern by identifying two of its factors, Araucan and Caupolican. They are members of a novel family of homeoproteins, with homolog… Show more

“…Wg signaling in turn promotes the expression of members of the Iroquois complex (Iro-C), namely araucan (ara), caupolican (caup), and mirror (mirr) (Heberlein et al 1998). pnr and members of Iro-C act as selectors for the dorsal eye fate (Gomez-Skarmeta et al 1996;McNeill et al 1997;Cavodeassi et al 1999). The boundary between the dorsal and ventral compartments is the site of Notch (N) signaling, which is required for cell proliferation and differentiation of the eye (Cho and Choi 1998;Dominguez and de Celis 1998;Papayannopoulos et al 1998;Dominguez and Casares 2005).…”
