Neuroblast lineage and cell fate specification in the Drosophila central nervous system

Abstract

dc:description

The generation of cellular diversity during early development of nervous system is poorly understood. In the Drosophila central nervous system, cell diversity is primarily generated by the invariant lineage of neural precursors called neuroblasts. It has been proposed that a class of genes are expressed in neuroblasts and their progeny and control the cell lineage of each neuroblast.
