Resolution of an equivocal genetic element in Drosophila melanogaster: organization of the maroon-like locus.

چکیده
Despite extensive prior study, an understanding of the genetic organization of the maroon-like locus (ma-l:1-64n has been elusive. A large-scale, three-point fine structure recombination experiment is described, wholse results provide documentation for an inexcapable argument that maroon-like is a single element rather than a polycistronic system.

Studies on genetic organization in higher organisms. II. Complementation and fine structure of the maroon-like locus of Drosophila melanogaster.
Mutants of the maroon-like complex, representative of the five known complementation classes, were subjected to fine structure mapping experiments utilizing a nutritional selective procedure which permits the survival of rare ma-l(+) progeny from large-scale crosses. The analysis provides an internally consistent, unique map, colinear with the complementation map. Noncomplementers exhibit a pol...
متن کاملConcentration dependent effect of morphine, aspirin, capsaicin and chili pepper hydro alcoholic extract on thermal and chemical pain model in fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster)
Introduction: Pain research using animal models is related to ethical concerns, so invertebrates and insects have been recommended by researchers. In the present study, the nociceptive and antinociceptive effects of capsaicin, aspirin, morphine and chili extract were examined using fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) as an alternative for rodent pain model. Methods: Stage 3 of larvae and ad...

Background: In this study, the toxicity of the different xenobiotics was tested on the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster model system. Methods: Fly larvae were raised on food supplemented with xenobioticsat different concentrations (sodium nitroprusside (0.1-1.5 mM), S-nitrosoglutathione (0.5-4 mM), and potassium ferrocyanide (1 mM)). Emergence of flies, food intake by larvae, and pupation h...
متن کاملStreamlined scanning for enhancer elements in Drosophila melanogaster.
Enhancer elements in most eukaryotic organisms are often positioned at a great distance away from the transcription start site of the gene they regulate. Complex three-dimensional chromatin organization and insulators usually guide and limit the range of an enhancer's regulatory activity to a specific genetic locus. Rigorous testing of an entire genomic locus is often required in order to uncov...
