Abstract excerpt
Analysis of the AMP-forming ACS gene was performed in 12 species of the Drosophilidae family. Systematically four introns, aligned at the same positions, were detected, but none of them showed a position similar to those known for species outside the Drosophilidae family. The average length of introns varied from 63 to 75 bp but in two species Drosophila takahashii and D. kikkawai the length of the second intron...
