Characterization of sequences associated with position-effect variegation at pericentric sites in Drosophila heterochromatin.

Chromosoma - 1 Nov 1998

Cryderman D E, Cuaycong M H, Elgin S C, Wallrath L L

Abstract excerpt

In a variety of organisms, euchromatic genes brought into juxtaposition with pericentric heterochromatin show position-effect variegation (PEV), a silencing of gene expression in a subset of the cells in which the gene is normally expressed. Previously, a P-element mobilization screen identified transgenic Drosophila stocks showing PEV of an hsp70-white+ reporter gene; transgenes in many of these stocks map to...
