A repressor-decay timer for robust temporal patterning in embryonic Drosophila neuroblast lineages

Biological timers synchronize patterning processes during embryonic development. In the Drosophila embryo, neural progenitors (neuroblasts; NBs) produce a sequence of unique neurons whose identities depend on the sequential expression of temporal transcription factors (TTFs). The stereotypy and prec...
