Retrotransposon-induced overexpression of a homeobox gene causes defects in eye morphogenesis in Drosophila.

The EMBO journal - 1 Feb 1991

Tanda S, Corces V G

Abstract excerpt

Insertion of the tom transposable element into various Drosophila ananassae genes results in dominant phenotypes that affect eye morphology. One of these genes encoded by the Om(1D) locus was isolated by transposon tagging. The Om(1D) gene encodes a 2.7 kb transcript that is expressed in every stage of development. The deduced Om(1D) protein is 606 amino acids long and contains two glutamine/histidine, two...
