Targeted transposition at the vestigial locus of Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetics - 1 Dec 1994

Heslip T R, Hodgetts R B

Abstract excerpt

Targeted transposition is the replacement of one P element with another. We are exploiting this unique property of P elements to study the complex regulatory domain of the Dopa decarboxylase (Ddc) gene in Drosophila melanogaster. P element constructs targeted to the same site in the genome will be subjected to the same position effect. This allows the subtle effects typical of most mutations in the Ddc regulatory...
