The P-element-induced silencing effect of KP transposons is dose dependent in Drosophila melanogaster.

Genome - 1 Sept 2011

Sameny Alireza, Locke John

Abstract excerpt

Transposable elements are found in the genomes of all eukaryotes and play a critical role in altering gene expression and genome organization. In Drosophila melanogaster, transposable P elements are responsible for the phenomenon of hybrid dysgenesis. KP elements, a deletion-derivative of the complete P element, can suppress this mutagenic effect. KP elements can also silence the expression of certain other...
