控制果蝇心脏早期发育的基因研究进展

Advance in gene control of early heart development of Drosophila

果蝇心脏早期发育与脊椎动物乃至人具有相似的分子机理 ,自 90年代以来 ,通过P转位子诱变方法已鉴定出 2 0多个与果蝇早期发育相关基因 。

The development pattern of early heart in Drosophila is remarkably similar to that in vertebrate.Since 1990's,more than 20 genes involved in the early heart development of Drosophilaobtained from p-element insertional mutation have been identified.It provides an important basis for understanding the regulation mechanism of human heart development.
