Recurrent modification of a conserved cis-regulatory element underlies fruit fly pigmentation diversity

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: William A. Rogers and collaborators from the Department of Biology, University of Dayton, Dayton, Ohio, United States of America, Department of Biological Sciences, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh have published the paper: Recurrent Modification of a Conserved Cis-Regulatory Element Underlies Fruit Fly Pigmentation Diversity, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of August/29,/2013
• what: By reconstructing the sequence and regulatory activity of the ancestral Drosophila melanogaster dimorphic element the authors demonstrate that a handful of mutations were sufficient to create independent CRE alleles with differing activities. This approach has been successful in making inferences about . . .
