The vestigial gene of Drosophila melanogaster is involved in the formation of the peripheral nervous system: genetic interactions with the scute geneA Zider
Laboratoire de Génétique Quantitative et Moléculaire, Institut Jacques Monod, Paris, France
J Neurogenet 12:87-99. 1998..From these results, we conclude that vestigial affects scute expression and plays a role in the differentiation of the peripheral nervous system...
TONDU (TDU), a novel human protein related to the product of vestigial (vg) gene of Drosophila melanogaster interacts with vertebrate TEF factors and substitutes for Vg function in wing formationP Vaudin
Laboratoire de Génétique Quantitative et Moléculaire, Institut Jacques Monod, France
Development 126:4807-16. 1999..Expression of TDU in Drosophila by means of the UAS-GAL4 system shows that this human protein can substitute for Vg in wing formation. We propose that TDU is a specific coactivator for the mammalian TEFs...
Control of apterous by vestigial drives indirect flight muscle development in DrosophilaF Bernard
Institut Jacques Monod, UMR 7592 CNRS, Universite Paris 7, Tour 43, 2, place Jussieu, 75251 Paris Cedex 05, France
Dev Biol 260:391-403. 2003..Moreover, we were able to rescue the muscle phenotype of vg(null) flies by using the activity of ap promoter to drive VG expression. Thus, vg appears to be a key regulatory gene of IFM development...
Temperature regulates expression of the Drosophila vestigial gene only in mutant wing discsJ Silber
Laboratoire de Génétique Quantitative et Moléculaire, Institut Jacques Monod, Paris, France
Mol Gen Genet 256:328-32. 1997..No effect is observed in the wild-type strain. The tissue specificity of the temperature effect indicates an involvement of the intronic wing-specific enhancer element in determining the thermosensitivity of mutants...
Specific interactions between vestigial and scalloped are required to promote wing tissue proliferation in Drosophila melanogasterS Paumard-Rigal
Institut Jacques Monod, L G Q M, 2, place Jussieu, Tour 43, F 75251 Paris Cedex 05, France
Dev Genes Evol 208:440-6. 1998..Our results therefore support the hypothesis that Sd and Vg directly interact in vivo to form a complex regulating the proliferation of wing tissue...
Vestigial gene expression in Drosophila melanogaster is modulated by the dTMP poolA Zider
Laboratoire de Génétique Quantitative et Moléculaire, Institut Jacques Monod, Paris
Mol Gen Genet 251:91-8. 1996..These results are compatible with a role for vestigial in modulating cell proliferation...
The vestigial locus of Drosophila melanogaster is involved in resistance to inhibitors of dTMP synthesisJ Silber
Laboratoire de Génétique Quantitative et Moléculaire, Institut J Monod Université Paris 7, France
Mol Gen Genet 241:42-8. 1993..Our results indicate a role for the vestigial locus in mediating resistance to inhibitors of dTMP synthesis...
