Recombinogenic effects of suppressors of position-effect variegation in Drosophila.

Genetics - 1 Feb 2002

Westphal Thomas, Reuter Gunter

Abstract excerpt

Compact chromatin structure, induction of gene silencing in position-effect variegation (PEV), and crossing-over suppression are typical features of heterochromatin. To identify genes affecting crossing-over suppression by heterochromatin we tested PEV suppressor mutations for their effects on crossing over in pericentromeric regions of Drosophila autosomes. From the 46 mutations (28 loci) studied, 16 Su(var)...
