Characterization of the structure and evolution of the Adh region of Drosophila hydei.

Genetics - 1 Feb 1991

Menotti-Raymond M, Starmer W T, Sullivan D T

Abstract excerpt

Drosophila of the repleta group have a duplication of the gene which encodes alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH). We report the nucleotide sequence of an 8.4-kb region of genomic DNA of Drosophila hydei which includes the entire Adh region. Analysis of this sequence reveals similarity in organization to the Adh region of Drosophila mojavensis and Drosophila mulleri of the mulleri subgroup, with three genes ordered 5' to...
