Different ways to make a head Different ways to make a head Urs Schmidt-Ott Summary In Drosophila, the establishment of the larval head and thorax depends on the transcription factors BICOID and HUNCHBACK, and on signalling mediated by the receptor tyrosine kinase TORSO. Genetic experiments described in two recent papers(1,2) demonstrate that these factors can, to a large extent, replace each other, revealing a surprising degree of plasticity in establishing larval anterior structures. The co
