Rex and a suppressor of Rex are repeated neomorphic loci in the Drosophila melanogaster ribosomal DNA.

Genetics - 1 Sept 1991

Rasooly R S, Robbins L G

Abstract excerpt

The Rex locus of Drosophila melanogaster induces a high frequency of mitotic exchange between two separated ribosomal DNA arrays on a single chromosome. The exchanges take place in the progeny of Rex mothers and occur very early, before the third mitotic division. A number of common laboratory stocks have also been found to carry dominant suppressors of Rex (Su(Rex)). Rex was mapped to the X centric...
