The functions of the multiproduct and rapidly evolving dec-1 eggshell gene are conserved between evolutionarily distant species of Drosophila.

Genetics - 1 Nov 2001

Badciong J C, Otto J M, Waring G L

Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila dec-1 gene encodes multiple proteins that are required for female fertility and proper eggshell morphogenesis. Genetic and immunolocalization data suggest that the different DEC-1 proteins are functionally distinct. To identify regions within the proteins with potential biological significance, we cloned and sequenced the D. yakuba and D. virilis dec-1 homologs. Interspecies comparisons of the...
