Evidence of a dual function in fl(2)d, a gene needed for Sex-lethal expression in Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetics - 1 Mar 1992

Granadino B, San Juán A, Santamaria P, Sánchez L

Abstract excerpt

In Drosophila melanogaster, the female sexual development of the soma and the germline requires the activity of the gene Sxl. The somatic cells need the function of the gene fl(2)d to follow the female developmental pathway, due to its involvement in the female-specific splicing of Sxl RNA. Here we report the analysis of both fl(2)d1 and fl(2)d2 mutations: (1) fl(2)d1 is a temperature-sensitive mutation lethal in...
