High-resolution mapping of heterochromatin redistribution in a Drosophila position-effect variegation model

BACKGROUND: Position-effect variegation (PEV) is the stochastic transcriptional silencing of a gene positioned adjacent to heterochromatin. white-mottled X-chromosomal inversions in Drosophila are classic PEV models that show variegation of the eye color gene white due to its relocation next to peri...
