Abstract excerpt
The suppressor of Hairy-wing [su(Hw)] protein mediates the mutagenic effect of the gypsy retrotransposon by repressing the function of transcriptional enhancers controlling the expression of the mutant gene. A structural and functional analysis of su(Hw) was carried out to identify domains of the protein responsible for its negative effect on enhancer action. Sequence comparison among the su(Hw) proteins from...
