Journal ArticleDOI

Refinement of Tools for Targeted Gene Expression in Drosophila

TL;DR: The increased strength and reliability of these optimized reagents overcome many of the previous limitations of these methods and will facilitate genetic manipulations of greater complexity and sophistication in Drosophila melanogaster.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tools for neuroanatomy and neurogenetics in Drosophila

TL;DR: The results suggest that the D. melanogaster genome contains >50,000 enhancers and that multiple enhancers drive distinct subsets of expression of a gene in each tissue and developmental stage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assembly of the nuclear transcription and processing machinery: Cajal bodies (coiled bodies) and transcriptosomes.

TL;DR: A model is presented in which pol I, pol II, and pol III transcriptosomes are assembled in the Cajal bodies before export to the nucleolus, to the B-snurposomes and eventually to the chromosomes (pol II), and directly to the chromosome (pol III).
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA sequence of the white locus of Drosophila melanogaster.

TL;DR: The positions of these insertions and those of previously characterized insertions associated with six other mutations suggest that some insertions within an intron may still allow the production of correctly spliced RNA, but affect the amount, and correspondingly the expression of the w locus.
