Characterization of Cis-Regulatory Elements Controlling Repo Transcription in Drosophila Melanogaster
… the transcription factor reversed polarity (repo) . One of my aims is to understand how the transcription of the glial-specific Gcm target gene repo is regulated by Gcm and other factors. In 2005, Lee and Jones defined a 4.3 kb cis-regulatory DNA region that recapitulates the endogenous Repo …
