Abstract excerpt
The Drosophila melanogaster serendipity (sry) genes sry alpha and sry beta, which code for unrelated proteins and functions, are transcribed both as monocistronic (sry alpha, srv beta) and dicistronic (sry beta-sry alpha) polyadenylated transcripts, the three types of transcripts being differentially expressed throughout development. We show here that, while the sry gene cluster is conserved in two other...
