Abstract excerpt
P element transposition in Drosophila melanogaster is regulated by germline-specific splicing of the P element ORF2-ORF3 intron. This regulation has been shown to depend on a cis-acting sequence located in the exon 12-31 bases from the 5' splice site. Mutations within this sequence disrupt the regulation and result in splicing of the ORF2-ORF3 intron in all tissues, indicating that the sequence is required to...
