Contrasting molecular population genetics of four hexokinases in Drosophila melanogaster, D. simulans and D. yakuba.

Abstract excerpt

As part of a larger study contrasting patterns of variation in regulatory and nonregulatory enzymes of the central metabolic pathways we have examined the molecular variation in four uncharacterized hexokinase genes unique to muscle, fat body, and testis in Drosophila melanogaster, D. simulans, and D. yakuba. Earlier isoenzyme studies had designated these genes as Hex-A, Hex-C, and Hex-t. There are two tightly...
