Title: Transcription of Drosophila mobile element gypsy (mdg4) in heat-shocked cells. Author: Lyubomirskaya NV, Arkhipova IR, Ilyin YuV. Journal: FEBS Lett; 1993 Jul 05; 325(3):233-6. PubMed ID: 8391478. Abstract: Drosophila melanogaster Schneider 2 line cultured cells were subjected to stable transformation by co-transfection with two plasmids, one of which conferred G418 resistance and another which contained the Drosophila retrotransposon, gypsy (mdg4), under the control of the heat-shock protein 70 promoter. Transcription of the introduced constructs, as well as of endogenous gypsy, was examined under the condition of heat shock. Active degradation of pre-existing gypsy transcripts was observed. During recovery, gypsy transcription was restored, but its termination and/or 3'-end processing became aberrant.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
