Function
May play a critical role in development of the progeny of eagle-positive neuroblasts.
Sequence Similarities
Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR0 subfamily.
Tissue Specificity
During embryonic stages 10 and 11, expression was observed in four neuroblasts, NB2-4, NB3-3, NB6-4 and NB7-3. Except for NB6-4, expression reaches a maximum at the very beginning of expression or in the period of neuroblast delamination. Weak expression is also observed in a few putative progeny of NB7-3 during late embryonic stage 11 and 12. All eagle expression in abdominal segments disappears by stage 13.
