Abstract excerpt
The (CT)n.(GA)n rich sequences in the upstream and 5' intron enhancer regions of the sn-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (Gpdh) gene in Drosophila melanogaster, its sibling and distantly related species are conserved in their position and in the number of repeats. Using in vitro DNA-footprint analyses we show that the GAGA factor binds to these multiple closely spaced and overlapping conserved (CT)n.(GA)n...
