Multi-layered regulation of courtship behaviour

S A Wasserman. Nat Cell Biol. 2000 Aug.

Abstract

The fruitless gene governs courtship in male, but not female, Drosophila, yet it is expressed and specifically spliced in the brains of both sexes. New experiments reveal that a splice-recognition site retained in the mature message in females provides the basis for sex-specific translational repression.
