Here we propose hypothetical models of the interaction between extracellular Miniature, and also Dusky, proteins and proteins responsible for triggering of the wing maturation processes in Drosophila melanogaster. %K bursicon %K Rickets %K Miniature %K Dusky %K wing maturation %U http://www.biopolymers.org.ua/pdf/en/28/4/288/
