Mosaic suppressor, a gene in Drosophila that modifies retrotransposon expression and interacts with zeste.

Genetics - 1 Feb 1994

Csink A K, Linsk R, Birchler J A

Abstract excerpt

A newly identified locus in Drosophila melanogaster, Mosaic suppressor (Msu), is described. This gene modifies the expression of white-apricot (wa), which is a copia retrotransposon-induced allele of the white gene. In addition to suppressing wa in a mosaic fashion, this mutation suppresses or enhances the expression of several other retrotransposon induced white alleles. Mutations in Msu alter copia transcript...
