Topological constraints on transvection between white genes within the transposing element TE35B in Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetics - 1 Jul 1997

Gubb D, Roote J, Trenear J, Coulson D, Ashburner M

Abstract excerpt

The transposable element TE35B carries two copies of the white (w) gene at 35B1.2 on the second chromosome. These w genes are suppressed in zeste-1 (z1) mutant background in a synapsis-dependent manner. Single-copy derivatives of the original TE35B stock give red eyes when heterozygous, but zeste...
