P Element Transformation

A hsp70–lacZ fusion gene introduced into Drosophila melanogaster at the euchromatic 31B region by P-element transformation displayed a variegated expression with respect to the lacZ fusion protein in the salivary gland cells under heat-shock conditions. The variegation is also reflected by the chromosome puffing pattern. Subsequent transposition of the 31B P element to other euchromatic positions restored wild-type activity, that is, a nonvariegated phenotype. A lower developmental temperature reduced the amount of expression under heat-shock conditions, similar to genes undergoing position-effect variegation (PEV). However, other modifiers of PEV did not affect the expression pattern of the gene. These results show a novel euchromatic tissue-specific variegation that is not associated with classical heterochromatic PEV.Key words: Drosophila, euchromatic position effect, heat shock construct.
