A correlation between Long noncoding RNA and unpaired DNA silencing in Drosophila

lncRNA

Hybrid transgenes are often recognized as foreign genetic material by cell surveillance mechanisms and are repressed in expression inversely to their copy numbers. Here, researchers from the Indian Institute of Chemical Technology compare the expression of multiple Adh-promoter-white reporter (Adh-w) inserts in paired and unpaired configurations in Drosophila somatic cells. The unpaired copies exhibit a clear repression at the transcriptional ...
