cis-Regulatory Control of Three Cell Fate-Specific Genes in Vulval Organogenesis of C. elegans and C. briggsae
The great-grandprogeny of the Caenorhabditis elegans vulval precursor cells (VPCs) adopt one of the final vulA, B1, B2, C, D, E and F cell types in a precise spatial pattern. Formation of the pattern of vulval cell types is likely to depend upon the cis-regulatory regions of the transcriptional targ...
