High impact information on Awh

  • Loss-of-function mutations in Arrowhead reduce the number of abdominal histoblasts and salivary gland imaginal ring cells before the proliferative stages of their development [1].
  • Consistent with its role in development, during embryogenesis Arrowhead is expressed in each abdominal segment and in the labial segment [2].
  • When ectopically expressed in imaginal disc cells, Arrowhead causes programmed cell death and loss of corresponding adult structures [2].
