Mutational mechanisms, phylogeny, and evolution of a repetitive region within a clock gene of Drosophila melanogaster.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Apr 1996

Rosato E, Peixoto A A, Gallippi A, Kyriacou C P, Costa R

Abstract excerpt

The D. melanogaster clock gene period (per) is an internally repetitive gene encoding a tandem array of Thr-Gly codons that are highly polymorphic in length in European natural populations. The two major length variants, (Thr-Gly)20 and (Thr-Gly)17, show a highly significant latitudinal cline. In this study we present the complete sequence of the Thr-Gly region of 91 individuals from 6 natural populations of D....
