The determined state of white expression in the Drosophila eye is modified by zeste1 in the wzm family of mutants.

Molecular & general genetics : MGG - 1 Mar 1994

Peterson K M, Davis P S, Judd B H

Abstract excerpt

Analysis of the whitezeste mottled (wzm) mutant family suggests that the zeste gene product functions in establishing and stabilizing a transcriptionally active chromatin domain for white locus expression. The z1 mutation reduces expression of paired or proximate copies of white, while single or unpaired copies maintain wild-type levels of expression. The wzm mutation, caused by the insertion of the...
