Abstract
Data on regulation and genetic control of transposition of mobile genetic e
lements (ME) in Drosophila are reviewed with special emphasis on the most a
bundant and best studied class of ME, retrotransposons. The effects of cis-
and trans- acting factors on their expression are analyzed. Loci of the ho
st genome involved in regulating their transposition are considered.
