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.
Starting from gastrulation the Sgs3 enhancer is maintained in an inactive state by a positioned nucleosomal core particle when Sgs3 is not expressed. This nucleosome is displaced or modified during gene activation. Gebf-I binds to enhancer sequences and mutation of the binding sites reduces Sgs3 expression. Results clearly suggest the direct involvement of Gebf-I in the activity of the enhancer and in the arrangement of an alternative chromatin structure in vivo.
Distal regulatory region of Sgs3, and GEBF-I like proteins studied in D.m., D.simulans, D.erecta and D.yakuba. GEBF-I proteins present in all four species, and evolve as rapidly as the corresponding DNA sequences in Sgs3 distal regulatory region. Hybrids between D.melanogaster and D.simulans synthesize a single, intermediate form of GEBF-I, suggesting species-specific post-translational modifications. Hybrid GEBF-I protein is equally effective in the induction of both D.melanogaster and D.simulans target genes. Polyclonal antibodies to GEBF-I generated.
ecdysone-induced, stage and tissue specific protein which binds to sequences -600bp from the Sgs3 start site. Presence of GEBF-I is strictly correlated with Sgs3 expression.
