Summary of mechanisms that controls cell death during Drosophila embryogenesis. Developmental cues control the expression of IAP-antagonists through specific transcription factors and through epigenetic regulation of the enhancer regions. The EGFR pathway suppresses the expression of hid and inhibits the pro-apoptotic activity of HID protein, thus determines the number of cells that can survive
