“…Expression of the Drosophila gene dsf is also limited to a subset of neurons in the brain, is required for male and female courtship behavior, and functions as a transcriptional repressor (Finley et al, 1997(Finley et al, , 1998Pitman et al, 2002). The fax-1 gene of C. elegans is expressed in approximately 18 neurons and in a small number of cells of the somatic gonad and vulva (Much et al, 2000;Wightman et al, 2005), is required for coordinated locomotion (Wightman et al, 1997), and regulates the expression of presynaptic and postsynaptic products (Wightman et al, 2005). Neurons lacking fax-1 typically exhibit axon pathfinding defects (Wightman et al, 1997(Wightman et al, , 2005Much et al, 2000).…”
