摘要
Pattern formation in Drosophila is initiated by a small set of asymmetrically distributed maternal transcription factors that act as graded morphogens along the anterior-posterior and the dorsal-ventral axes of the embryo. Recent progress in the field provides first insight into the molecular mechanisms by which long-range positional information in the egg causes a series of localized zygotic transcription factors to position the developmental fate along the blastoderm.
