A re-inducible gap gene cascade patterns the anterior–posterior axis of insects in a threshold-free fashion
Gap genes mediate the division of the anterior-posterior axis of insects into different fates through regulating downstream hox genes. Decades of tinkering the segmentation gene network of Drosophila melanogaster led to the conclusion that gap genes are regulated (at least initially) through a thres...
