Germline/soma distinction in Drosophila embryos requires regulators of zygotic genome activation

Germline/soma distinction in Drosophila embryos requires regulators of zygotic genome activation

In Drosophila melanogaster embryos, somatic versus germline identity is the first cell fate decision. Zygotic genome activation (ZGA) orchestrates regionalized gene expression, imparting specific identity on somatic cells. ZGA begins with a minor wave that commences at nuclear cycle (NC)8 under the...
