Additional Descriptive Data

Dll is transcribed in the anterior protocerebral neurectoderm in a pattern that overlaps btd.

(Lemons et al., 2010)

Dll is normally expressed in the imaginal limb primordia of segments T1, T2, and T3 in embryos. In BXC^- embryos, expression is also seen in ectopic primordia in segments A1-A9.

(Simcox et al., 1991)

Dll transcripts are detected initially in post blastoderm embryos and are present at increased levels during late embryogenesis. They are also expressed in all three larval instars with the lowest level in 2nd instar. Later stages were not tested.

Additional Descriptive Data

In contrast to Dll expression in the brain, which includes both neurons and glia, Dll expression in the VNC (ventral nerve cord) is exclusively glial. In the embryonic VNC, Dll is expressed in both cell body associated glia and dorsal longitudinal glia. Both are subsets of the lateral glia.

(Plavicki et al., 2016)

Dll expression can be detected in the optic lobes during larval and adult stages. However, in contrast to Dll expression in other sensory systems, expression seems to be limited to brain processing regions and is not detected in retinal neurons or their support cells.

(Plavicki et al., 2016)

Dll is expressed in the embryonic precursors of the dorsal organ (antennal primordium) and terminal organ (maxillary sensory complex primordium), continuing into those organs through the third larval instar. During sense organ specification, Dll protein is coexpressed with the proneural transcription factor ato and sense organ transcription factor sens in subsets of sensory organ precursors in the head segments. By embryonic stage 16, sens is expressed in the ganglia of the dorsal organ, terminal organ, and ventral organ, as well as in some of the eo support cells (thecogen, tormogen, and trichogen cells).

(Plavicki et al., 2012)

Dll expression was compared in the wing and haltere discs. Expression is present along the D/V axis in wing but not haltere.

(Slattery et al., 2011)

Dll protein is detected in third instar larval antennal discs in the primordia of antennal segments 1, 2 and 3 and in the arista primordia.

(Emmons et al., 2007)

At embryonic stage 11, Dll is expressed in a group of cells straddling the anterior/posterior compartment boundary of the thoracic hemisegments, as well as in the segments of the head.
