The study of Drosophila Hox genes, located in the Antennapedia complex (ANT-C) and Bithorax complex (BX-C), has provided fundamental insights into mechanisms of how the segments of the animal body plan are specified. Notably, even though the analysis of the BX-C formally began over a century ago, surprises continue to emerge regarding its regulation and function. Even simply the gene content of the...
The Drosophila Bithorax complex (BX-C) Hox cluster contains a bidirectionally transcribed miRNA locus, and a deletion mutant (Δmir) lays no eggs and is completely sterile. We show these miRNAs are expressed and active in distinct spatial registers along the anterior-posterior axis in the CNS. Δmir larvae derepress a network of direct homeobox gene targets in the posterior ventral nerve cord (VNC),...
