Mapping functional domains of the polycomb protein of Drosophila melanogaster.

Chromosome research : an international journal on the molecular, supramolecular and evolutionary aspects of chromosome biology - 1 Sept 1995

Franke A, Messmer S, Paro R

Abstract excerpt

In Drosophila the Polycomb group (Pc-G) proteins are responsible for the stable and heritable silencing of genes. The Pc-G apparently uses heterochromatin-like mechanisms to transcriptionally inactivate developmental regulators such as the homeotic genes. The Polycomb (Pc) protein is part of a large multimeric complex composed of other members of the Pc-G. We have identified functionally relevant domains of the...
