All Paired Up with No Place to Go: Pairing, Synapsis, and DSB Formation in a Balancer Heterozygote (2005)

Wei J. Gong, Kim S. McKim, R. Scott Hawley

The multiply inverted X chromosome balancer FM7 strongly suppresses, or eliminates, the occurrence of crossing over when heterozygous with a normal sequence homolog. We have utilized the LacI-GFP:...

Ends-out, or replacement, gene targeting in Drosophila

Gong, Wei J., Golic, Kent G.

Ends-in and ends-out refer to the two arrangements of donor DNA that can be used for gene targeting. Both have been used for targeted mutagenesis, but require donors of differing design. Ends-out...

Genomic Deletions of the Drosophila melanogaster Hsp70 Genes

Gong, Wei J., Golic, Kent G.

Homologous recombination can produce directed mutations in the genomes of a number of model organisms, including Drosophila melanogaster. One of the most useful applications has been to delete target...

Loss of Hsp70 in Drosophila Is Pleiotropic, With Effects on Thermotolerance, Recovery From Heat Shock and Neurodegeneration

Gong, Wei J., Golic, Kent G.

The heat-shock response is a programmed change in gene expression carried out by cells in response to environmental stress, such as heat. This response is universal and is characterized by the...
