Mv. Frolov et Ve. Alatortsev, TRANSCRIPTION OF THE DROSOPHILA-MELANOGAS TER GENE PRUNE UNDER POSITION EFFECT VARIEGATION, Genetika, 29(9), 1993, pp. 1573-1578
Analysis of transcription of the gene prune being undergone position e
ffect variegation in the inversion In(1LR)pn2a [1, 2] is presented. Us
ing Northern hydridization with following densitometric analysis of bl
ots it was shown that the quantity of the prune mRNA is decreased 1,8/-0,4 times in comparison with normal. Transcripts differing from wild
type sizes are not detected. On the basis of the results obtainism of
inactivation propagation in the case of the position effect.
