Dmir\exu2
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.
In the D.miranda genomic clone analysed in FBrf0160390, three copies of "exu2" sequence have been found (represented by Dmir\exu2b, Dmir\exu2c and Dmir\exu2Ψ), which exhibit high sequence similarity. Two copies can be translated into functional protein (Dmir\exu2b, Dmir\exu2c) whereas the third copy (Dmir\exu2Ψ) appears to be a pseudogene (it contains a premature stop codon and is truncated at the 3' end). The copy of D.miranda "exu2" sequenced in FBrf0131430 (represented by Dmir\exu2a) differs slightly from those in the clone recovered in FBrf0160390, implying that there are at least four copies of "exu2" in D.miranda.
