Molecular data
Minigene of the white cDNA.
4.15kb SpeI fragment of the w gene that carries a deletion of a large part of the first intron and the regulatory region is reduced to 300bp preceding the transcription start site.
Construct: A 'mini-white' gene constructed by deletion of the HindIII-XbaI fragment from the long 5' intron. Carried by the Casper series of vectors.
