Abstract excerpt
In this study we have generated two new hypomorphic Chro alleles and analyzed the consequences of reduced Chromator protein function on polytene chromosome structure. We show that in Chro(71)/Chro(612) mutants the polytene chromosome arms were coiled and compacted with a disruption and misalignme...
