Summary

Expiration of hedgehog in the posterior compartment of the Drosophila wing results from the communication between a previously defined ME and a nearby cis-regulatory element termed the C enhancer, suggesting that enhancers and MEs of different genes are interchangeable modules whose communication is involved in restricting and expanding the domains of gene expression.
