The Drosophila virilis dopa decarboxylase gene is developmentally regulated when integrated into Drosophila melanogaster.

S J Bray, J Hirsh.   

Abstract

The dopa decarboxylase gene (Ddc) has been isolated from Drosophila virilis and introduced into the germ-line of Drosophila melanogaster by P-element mediated transformation. The integrated gene is induced at the correct stages during development with apparently normal tissue specificity, indicating that cis-acting elements required for regulation are functionally conserved between the two species. A comparison of the DNA sequences from the 5' flanking regions reveals a cluster of small (8-16 bp) conserved sequence elements within 150 bp upstream of the RNA startpoint, a region required for normal expression of the D. melanogaster Ddc gene.
