(Submitter supplied) Investigatation into how genes with sex-differential expression profiles are distributed among the chromosomes in Drosophila. Assayed the expression of 14,142 predicted transcripts in competitive hybridizations and found a dramatic underrepresentation of X-chromosome genes showing high relative expression in male. This is the first report of sex-biased expression of the full (predicted) genome. Findings indicate that there is significant sex-biased expression, especially in gonads. more...

(Submitter supplied) The array was assembled using amplicons representing approximately 93% of the genes predicted in version 1.0 of the Drosophila genome from sequences released by the Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project and Celera Genomics in March 2000. The amplicons represent approximately 75% of the genes predicted in the January 2003 release 3.1 Drosophila genome annotation update. Incyte in-house algorithms were used to develop gene-specific primers averaging 20 nucleotides in length that were used to PCR amplify one exon or exon fragment from every predicted gene in the fly genome. more...
