Autosomal control of the Y-chromosome kl-3 loop of Drosophila melanogaster.

Chromosoma - 1 Oct 2004

Abstract excerpt

The Y chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster carries a limited number of loci necessary for male fertility that possess a series of unconventional features that still hinder a definition of their biological role: they have extremely large sizes; accommodate huge amounts of repetitive DNA; and develop prominent, lampbrush-like loops that bind a number of non-Y-encoded proteins. To obtain insight into the functional...
