Abstract excerpt
A tomato EST sequence, highly homologous to the human and Arabidopsis thaliana UV-damaged DNA binding protein 1 (DDB1), was mapped to the centromeric region of the tomato chromosome 2. This region was previously shown to harbor the HP-1 gene, encoding the high pigment-1 ( hp-1) and the high pigment-1(w) ( hp-1(w)) mutant phenotypes. Recent results also show that the A. thaliana DDB1 protein interacts both...
