Discovery of genes with highly restricted expression patterns in theDrosophilawing disc using DNA oligonucleotide microarrays

Abstract: The Drosophila wing disc is divided along the proximaldistal axis into regions giving rise to the body wall (proximal), wing hinge(central) and wing blade (distal). We applied DNA microarray analysis to discover genes with potential roles in the development of these regions. We identified a set of 94 transcripts enriched (two fold or greater) in the body wall and 56 transcripts enriched in the wing/hinge region. Transcripts that are known to have highly restricted expression patterns, such aspannier, twist and… Show more

“…In Drosophila , Idgfs stimulate the proliferation, polarization, and motility of imaginal disc cells in cooperation with insulin (Kawamura et al 1999). According to Butler et al (2003), Idgf4 is expressed in the peripodial membrane (primarily in dorsal cells) and, presumably, the secretion of Idgf4 influences the development of the columnar epithelium (Butler et al 2003). The constant concentration of Idgf4 indicated its equal need in the red-eye pupa and in the emerged worker hemolymph.…”

“…The gene was named mes2, based on its expression in the early mesoderm, and we shall henceforth refer to it by this name. mes2 has since been identified in several additional microarraybased screens that examined transcript levels in the wing imaginal disc (Butler et al, 2003), glia (Freeman et al, 2003), and the central nervous system (CNS) midline (Kearney et al, 2004).…”
