Abstract excerpt
We are taking two approaches to understanding the structure, function and regulation of essential genes within Drosophila heterochromatin. In the first, we have undertaken a genetic and molecular characterization of essential genes within proximal 3L heterochromatin. The expression of such 'resident' genes within a heterochromatic environment is paradoxical and poorly understood, given that the same environment...
