Sex-specific processing of the Drosophila exuperantia transcript is regulated in male germ cells by the tra-2 gene.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 25 Oct 1994

Hazelrigg T, Tu C

Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila exuperantia (exu) gene encodes overlapping sex-specific, germline-dependent mRNAs. In this work, the structural differences between these sex-specific exu mRNAs were determined by sequence analysis of 9 ovary and 10 testis cDNAs. The transformer 2 (tra-2) gene functions in sex determination of female somatic cells through its role in regulating female-specific splicing of doublesex (dsx) RNA. We...
