The testis specificity index was calculated from modENCODE tissue expression data by Vedelek et al., 2018 to indicate the degree of testis enrichment compared to other tissues. Scores range from -2.52 (underrepresented) to 5.2 (very high testis bias).

For each fully sequenced cDNA the DGRC maintains various forms of the cDNA (e.g tagged or untagged) in several different host vectors for subsequent cloning and expression in Drosophila and Drosophila cell lines.
Transcripts of both strands of 1.688 satDNA repeats have been detected in germinal tissues.
Satellite DNA from the telomeric region of 2L has silencing properties even when transposed to other regions of the genome.
By comparing methylation by Ecol\dam methylase between euchromatic and heterochromatic genes it was determined that the heterochromatic state does not prevent methylase accessibility in vivo.
In situ hybridisation experiments performed on a number of cytologically determined rearrangements involving the Y chromosome allows localisation of satellite DNA along the Y chromosome.
This is a temporary record designed to include data on Drosophila satellite DNAs.
