Abstract excerpt
We have analyzed the cis-regulatory regions in the 5' flanking DNA of the Drosophila melanogaster choline acetyltransferase (ChAT; E.C. 2.3.1.6) gene by using germline transformants. These transformants are carrying wild-type ChAT cDNA fused to different lengths of 5' flanking sequence of the ChA...
