A functional genomics approach identifies novel genes involved in steroid-hormove induced programmed cell death in Drosophila

Programmed Cell death (PCD) is a highly conserved and genetically controlled event that plays important roles in animal development, homeostasis and disease. Our first objective was to discover and characterize new genes involved in PCD. Since many PCD genes are conserved in Drosophila, and steroid-...
