A global timing mechanism regulates cell-type specific wiring programs

Saumya Jain, Ying Lin, Yerbol Z. Kurmangaliyev…·S Lawrence Zipursky

The paper shows that the Ecdysone pathway regulates timing of transcription factor expression, which in turn controls cell-type specific wiring programs in fly neurons.
