tudor, a posterior-group gene of Drosophila melanogaster, encodes a novel protein and an mRNA localized during mid-oogenesis.

Genes & development - 1 Nov 1991

Golumbeski G S, Bardsley A, Tax F, Boswell R E

Abstract excerpt

The tudor (tud) locus of Drosophila melanogaster is required during oogenesis for the formation of primordial germ cells and for normal abdominal segmentation. The tud locus was cloned, and its product was identified by Northern analysis of wild-type and tud mutant RNAs. The locus encodes a single mRNA of approximately 8.0 kb that is expressed throughout the life cycle, beginning in the early stages of germ-line...
