Sciarid DNA puff genes are amplified and expressed in a developmentally regulated manner in the salivary gland in response to the increase in ecdysone levels that precede metamorphosis. Data derived from functional studies in the model organism Drosophila melanogaster revealed the existence of cis-regulatory modules that drive gene expression in the salivary gland and the ring gland in th…

The DNA puff C4 BhC4-1 gene of Bradysia hygiene is amplified and expressed in a regulated manner in two larval tissues, the prothoracic gland, and the salivary gland. Functional studies in Drosophila melanogaster revealed that the molecular mechanisms that regulate BhC4-1 expression are conserved in D. melanogaster and resulted in the identification of cis-regulatory modules that regulate…
Our laboratory investigates the molecular mechanisms that promote developmentally regulated patterns of gene expression in eukaryotes. As a model, we employ the BhC4-1 DNA puff gene, which is amplified and expressed in a developmentally regulated manner at the end of the fourth larval instar of B. hygida. The functional analyses of the BhC4-1 promoter region lead to the identification of …
Our laboratory investigates mechanisms controlling gene expression in metazoans. As a model we employ the DNA puff gene BhC4-1, which is expressed at the end of the larval development of the sciarid Bradysia hygida. Functional assays in the model organism Drosophila melanogaster led to the identification of a salivary gland 129 bp (-186/-58) enhancer in the BhC4-1 promoter. Although the d…
