Screen for enhancers of Polycomb and Polycomblike in Drosophila melanogaster.

Developmental genetics - 1 Jan 1994

Landecker H L, Sinclair D A, Brock H W

Abstract excerpt

There are 11 Polycomb group genes known in Drosophila. These genes are negative regulators of homeotic gene expression, and may act by modifying chromatin structure. It is not clear how many members of the Polycomb group of genes exist. Many were discovered because of their homeotic phenotypes, o...
