Abstract excerpt
Collections of single P transposable-element insertion strains that currently inactivate more than 25% of essential Drosophila genes have proven to be a valuable tool for genome research in Drosophila melanogaster. For genes unrepresented in these collections, strategies including local P element transposition and transposase-induced imprecise excision can be used to inactivate or delete the gene of interest....
