Using the method of P-element-mediated enhancer detection, 29 Drosophila melanogaster lines were obtained that carried P-1ArB vector insertions in chromosomes 2 and 3. The expression of the reporter gene lacZ at different developmental stages of the transformed lines was determined in color reactions for beta-galactosidase. Regions of vector integration were located using in situ hybridization. Subsequent electron-microscopic mapping of the transformed regions was performed using four lines (nos. 12, 41, 2, and 3). In the lines 12 and 41, lacZ was expressed in most tissues of embryos, larvae, and imagoes (including salivary glands), whereas in lines 2 and 3 its expression was observed only in embryos. Lines 12 and 2 showed the presence of insertions in the 85D9/10 and 86B4/6 interband regions, respectively. The absence of a novel band in line 3 could be associated with transposon integration into the band. In line 41, puffing of the transformed region was observed, which did not allow us to determine the presence of any novel structures in it. The novel structures in lines 12 and 2 looked like single bands with a similar DNA packing ratio of about 30. These bands were obviously polygenic, because the inserted vector contained four functionally different genes.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy

D002875 Chromosomes In a prokaryotic cell or in the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell, a structure consisting of or containing DNA which carries the genetic information essential to the cell. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Chromosome
D004251 DNA Transposable Elements Discrete segments of DNA which can excise and reintegrate to another site in the genome. Most are inactive, i.e., have not been found to exist outside the integrated state. DNA transposable elements include bacterial IS (insertion sequence) elements, Tn elements, the maize controlling elements Ac and Ds, Drosophila P, gypsy, and pogo elements, the human Tigger elements and the Tc and mariner elements which are found throughout the animal kingdom.
