High resolution ChIP-chip profiles of MSL complex binding in the Lsp1α, CG15309, CG1529 and CG1631 gene regions. Summary of data from Gilfillan et al (2006) [23] and Alekseyenko et al (2006) [21]. The figures were downloaded from the web site maintained by the Becker group [62]. The Lsp1α(-573 to +20)-lacZ:19E7 insertion site (A), I-arm-lacZ-I2:19C3 insertion site (B) and Lsp1α(-573 to +20)-lacZ:9B4 insertion site (C) are shown in comparison to the Lsp1α genomic position at 11A12 (D).
