Dunc-4
homeodomain transcription factor - functions during post-embryonic development of the adult CNS to promote cholinergic neurotransmitter identity and suppress the GABA fate in one larval neuroblast lineage - promotes proper neuronal projections to the leg neuropil and a specific flight-related take-off behavior in a second larval lineage - acts peripherally to promote proprioceptive sensory organ development and the execution of specific leg-related behaviors

Please Note This section lists cDNAs and ESTs that fall within the genomic extent of the gene model, which may include cDNAs and ESTs of genes within introns, or of overlapping genes. Please see GBrowse for alignment of the cDNAs and ESTs to the gene model.
For each fully sequenced cDNA the DGRC maintains various forms of the cDNA (e.g tagged or untagged) in several different host vectors for subsequent cloning and expression in Drosophila and Drosophila cell lines.
A novel paired-like homeobox containing gene isolated by RT-PCR from Drosophila embryonic mRNA. Temporal and spatial expression patterns are characterised.
