Abstract excerpt
Twelve cytochrome P450 cDNA fragments were cloned from Drosophila melanogaster by reverse transcriptase/PCR (RT/PCR) using degenerate oligonucleotide primers. The corresponding genes belong to several subfamilies of the CYP4 and CYP9 P450 families. Only two of these genes, Cyp4dl and Cyp4d2, have previously been described. In situ hybridization of each of the cDNA fragments showed two clusters of genes; one near...
