twist and snail as positive and negative regulators during Drosophila mesoderm development.
Open accessAbstract
twist and snail are members of the helix-loop-helix and zinc-finger protein families, respectively, and determine the development of the mesoderm in Drosophila. This paper analyzes their role in mesoderm development by examining how they affect the expression of downstream genes. twist and snail act by regulating gene expression in the mesoderm and in neighboring regions, and have distinct roles in this process. snail prevents expression in the mesoderm of genes that are destined to be active only in more lateral or dorsal regions. twist is required for the activation of downstream mesodermal genes. twist is also required for the full expression of snail and for the maintenance of its own expression. Only the absence of both twist and snail results in the complete loss of all mesodermal characteristics.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
