Abstract excerpt
We have investigated projectin, a large protein of insect muscles, in Drosophila melanogaster. The 5.3 kilobases of coding sequence reported here contains Class I and Class II motifs characteristic of titin and twitchin, arranged in a three domain ... [II-I-I] [II-I-I] ... pattern. Two mutants mapped to the location of the projectin gene in the 102C subdivision of chromosome 4, lethal(4) 102 CDa and...
