| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The function of gene, simjang, that enhances transdetermination of Drosophila imaginal discs was analyzed in this study. Simjang enhanced the eye to wing transdetermination through Mi-2/NuRD complex. Furthermore, Simjang was suggested to enhance the transdetermination by re-programing of developmental program.
