Abstract

Insertional mutagenesis screens using the P[lacZ, rosy+] (PZ) transposable element have provided thousands of mutant lines for analyzing genes of varied function in the fruitfly, Drosophila melanogaster. As have been observed with other P elements, many of the PZ-induced mutations result from insertion of the P element into the promoter or 5' untranslated regions of the affected gene. We document here a novel mechanism for mutagenesis by this element. We show that sequences present within the element direct aberrant splicing and termination events that produce a mRNA composed of 5' sequences from the mutated gene (in this case, pipsqueak) and 3' sequences from within the P[lacZ, rosy+] element. These truncated RNAs could yield proteins with dominant mutant effects.

摘要

使用P[lacZ, rosy+](PZ)转座因子进行的插入诱变筛选,已经为分析黑腹果蝇中各种功能的基因提供了数千个突变品系。正如在其他P因子中所观察到的那样,许多PZ诱导的突变是由于P因子插入到受影响基因的启动子或5'非翻译区所致。我们在此记录了该因子诱变的一种新机制。我们表明,该因子内存在的序列会导致异常剪接和终止事件,从而产生一种mRNA,其由来自突变基因(在这种情况下为pipsqueak)的5'序列和来自P[lacZ, rosy+]因子内的3'序列组成。这些截短的RNA可能产生具有显性突变效应的蛋白质。
