Transcriptional regulation of the Drosophila segmentation gene fushi tarazu (ftz)

Abstract
ftz is one of the 'pair rule' segmentation genes of Drosophila melanogaster, and is an important component of the segmentation process in the fruit fly. We discuss the transcriptional mechanism which causes ftz to be expressed in a seven stripe pattern during embryogenesis.
