Please Note This section lists cDNAs and ESTs that fall within the genomic extent of the gene model, which may include cDNAs and ESTs of genes within introns, or of overlapping genes. Please see JBrowse for alignment of the cDNAs and ESTs to the gene model.
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.
Interspecific variation of α-Amylase activities in 18 Drosophila species and the response patterns of enzyme activity to dietary carbohydrates at the larval and adult stages are examined. Glucose repression is conserved among species at both stages while starch induction is mainly observed in larvae. Results may suggest that the regulatory systems responsible both for the response to environment and developmental expression are different among Drosophila species.
