Abstract excerpt
We previously reported cloning of the Drosophila mitochondrial transcription factor A (D-mtTFA) gene, and characterization of a recombinant protein. In this report, the expression and distribution patterns of D-mtTFA during development are described. D-mtTFA mRNA and its protein product were found to be abundant in cells of tissues undergoing both proliferation and polytenization. Furthermore, a DRE-like sequence...
