Characterization of enhancer-of-white-apricot in Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetics - 1 Dec 1990

Peng X B, Mount S M

Abstract excerpt

The white-apricot (wa) allele differs from the wild-type white gene by the presence of the retrovirus-like transposable element copia within the transcription unit. Most RNAs derived from wa have 3' termini within this insertion, and only small amounts of structurally normal RNA are produced. The activity of wa is reduced in trans by a semidominant mutation in the gene Enhancer-of-white-apricot (E(wa). Flies that...
