The even-skipped (eve) gene of Drosophila melanogaster is a crucial member of the pair-rule class of segmentation genes. We report here the characterization of a 16-kb region sufficient for all known aspects of eve expression and the rescue of an eve null mutation. We began by examining 45 kb surrounding the eve coding sequence for DNaseI hypersensitive sites and other transcription units. We find that the...
