Accordingly, transcriptional programs must effect the specification of at least as many neuronal subtypes. We demonstrate a role for the transcription factor Shaking hands (Skh) in the specification of embryonic CX neurons in Tribolium. The developmental dynamics of Tc-skh expression are characteristic for terminal selectors of subtype identity. In the embryonic brain, Tc-skh expression is restricted to a subset of neurons, many of which survive to adulthood and contribute to the mature CX. Tc-skh expression is maintained throughout the lifetime in at least some CX neurons. Tc-skh knock-down results in axon outgrowth defects thus preventing the formation of an embryonic CX primordium.
