Isolation and molecular and genetic characterization of glide/gcm target genes in drosophila melanogaster

Objective

The glide/gcm transcription factor induces gliogenesis by activating target genes that execute the glial differentiation program. Since glial differentiation depends on glide/gcm, I propose to identify and characterise its targets to determine the molecular cascade involved in gliogenesis.
