Project description:Identification of the interaction partners of the protein ecdysoneless (Ecd) in Drosophila melanogaster S2 cells as well as profiling of the changes in binding for mutant, truncated Ecd del34 protein.
Project description:We find a high concordance between the binding of the Drosophila transcription factor Dorsal and the co-activator CBP during early embryogenesis. This relationship was furter examined by comparing CBP distribution in Drosophila embryos derived from wt and mutant flies lacking intranuclear Dorsal (gd7). Our data suggests a specific involvemet of CBP in initiating early dorsoventral patterning, but not in anterioposterior. CBP ChIP seq of 2-4 hours old Drosophila embryos derived from w1118 (wild-type) or gd7 homozygous mutant mothers
