The engrailed gene is activated in cells that have high levels of the Even-skipped, Fushi tarazu, or Paired & repressed in cells that have high levels of Odd-skipped, Runt, or Sloppy-paired

The wingless (wg) gene is activated in those bands of cells that receive little or no Even-skipped or Fushi tarazu protein, but which do contain Sloppy-paired

Once wingless and engrailed expression patterns are established in adjacent cells, this pattern must be maintained to retain the parasegmental periodicity of the body plan.
