Broken chromosomal ends can be elongated by conversion in Drosophila melanogaster.

Chromosoma - 1 May 1999

Mikhailovsky S, Belenkaya T, Georgiev P

Abstract excerpt

The fate of the termini of X chromosomes broken in the regulatory region of the yellow gene was followed in heterozygotes with X chromosomes carrying a point mutation inactivating the yellow gene. Each generation had a loss of about 70 terminal base pairs from the broken chromosome. However, gene conversion restoring the correct sequence at the chromosomal terminus took place with a frequency of about 1 x 10(-2)...
