Inducing extra copies of the Hsp70 gene in Drosophila melanogaster increases energetic demand

BACKGROUND: Mutations that increase gene expression are predicted to increase energy allocation to transcription, translation and protein function. Despite an appreciation that energetic tradeoffs may constrain adaptation, the energetic costs of increased gene expression are challenging to quantify...
