BrainGenes: A search for Drosophila neuronal precursor genes

Introduction

This project was designed to identify Drosophila genes that are dynamically expressed during the generation of neural lineages. Below is a list of links to genes identified in a differential expression screen of a cDNA library prepared from 8.5 h old (stage 11) embryonic heads. Gene identification is based on Drosophila gene annotation Release 3.2.0 of March 2004.
