Abstract excerpt
DNA repair mechanisms are important to maintain the stability of the genome. In Drosophila melanogaster, the mus-201 gene is required in the excision repair process. To study the contribution of the mus-201 gene in the stability of the Drosophila genome, we have used the arbitrarily primed PCR fingerprinting method (AP-PCR). We have analysed the changes in the genomic DNA fingerprints from the progeny of...
