Origin of Drosophila mushroom body neuroblasts and generation of divergent embryonic lineages.

Kunz T1, Kraft KF, Technau GM, Urbach R.
Development (Cambridge, England).Development.2012 Jul;139(14):2510-22. doi: 10.1242/dev.077883. Epub 2012 Jun 6.
Key to understanding the mechanisms that underlie the specification of divergent cell types in the brain is knowledge about the neurectodermal origin and lineages of their stem cells. Here, we focus on the origin and embryonic development of the four neuroblasts (NBs) per hemisphere in Drosophila th

Unique establishment of procephalic head segments is supported by the identification of cis-regulatory elements driving segment-specific segment polarity gene expression in Drosophila.

Ntini E1, Wimmer EA.
Development genes and evolution.Dev Genes Evol.2011 May;221(1):1-16. doi: 10.1007/s00427-011-0354-8. Epub 2011 Mar 12.
Anterior head segmentation is governed by different regulatory mechanisms than those that control trunk segmentation in Drosophila. For segment polarity genes, both initial mode of activation as well as cross-regulatory interactions among them differ from the typical genetic circuitry in the trunk a

A procephalic territory in Drosophila exhibiting similarities and dissimilarities compared to the vertebrate midbrain/hindbrain boundary region.

Urbach R1.
Neural development.Neural Dev.2007 Nov 5;2:23.
BACKGROUND: In vertebrates, the primordium of the brain is subdivided by the expression of Otx genes (forebrain/anterior midbrain), Hox genes (posterior hindbrain), and the genes Pax2, Pax5 and Pax8 (intervening region). The latter includes the midbrain/hindbrain boundary (MHB), which acts as a key
