    Other Comments

    Ectopic expression of Brer\shh has a similar effect as ectopic expression of hh though Brer\shh has an attenuated effect on imaginal disc patterning. Reorganisation of the anterior wing is presaged by ectopic expression of dpp and ptc.

    Brer\shh can act in the same pathway as the endogenous hh, overexpression in Drosophila embryos activates hh-dependent pathway.
