2003 SEP 22 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- A novel Drosophila gene locus controlling growth and proliferation has been identified.

"Multicellular organisms grow through both proliferation and growth of their individual cells," scientists in France explained.

S. Raisin and colleagues at the National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) "conducted a P-element-based misexpression screen for genes whose upregulation alters wing disc growth during development" in D. melanogaster.

"One particular group of four P elements, all inserted at cytological location 61C7-8, exhibited specific overgrowth upon misexpression in proliferating imaginal tissues," they…
