Table of Contents:
- Contents: The dorsal-ventral patterning of the early Drosophila embryo is controlled by a sequence-specific transcription factor called Dorsal, which is related to mammalian NF-κB
- The Dorsal protein is distributed in a broad nuclear gradient, which generates different thresholds of gene activity
- The mechanisms underlying these thresholds are likely to be relevant to a host of developmental processes in metazoan embryos.
