The genome sequence of Drosophila melanogaster

Mark Raymond Adams, +194 more
- 24 Mar 2000 - 
TL;DR: The nucleotide sequence of nearly all of the approximately 120-megabase euchromatic portion of the Drosophila genome is determined using a whole-genome shotgun sequencing strategy supported by extensive clone-based sequence and a high-quality bacterial artificial chromosome physical map.
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

Exploiting transcription factor binding site clustering to identify cis-regulatory modules involved in pattern formation in the Drosophila genome

TL;DR: Evaluated the extent to which the tendency for transcription factor binding sites to be clustered can be used as the basis for the computational identification of cis-regulatory modules and identified genomic regions containing unusually high concentrations of predicted binding sites for these factors.
