Chromatin: Ga-ga over GAGA factor H. Granok, B.A. Leibovitch, C.D. Shaffer, S.C.R. Elgin  Current Biology  Volume 5, Issue 3, Pages 238-241 (March 1995) DOI: 10.1016/S0960-9822(95)00048-0

Figure 1 GAGA factor protein domains. (a) the 519 amino-acid protein predicted by cDNAs isolated by Soeller et al.[8]. (b) the 581 amino-acid protein predicted by additional cDNAs isolated by C. Benyajati and colleagues (personal communication). The two proteins have identical sequences up to residue 378, at which point they diverge. The carboxy-terminal regions (light and dark blue) of both proteins are glutamine rich. Other features include the ‘BTB’ or ‘POZ’ domain (green, see text) and a single zinc finger (red), classified as being of the C2/H2 type from the characteristic cysteine and histidine pairs. Current Biology 1995 5, 238-241DOI: (10.1016/S0960-9822(95)00048-0)

Figure 2 Distribution of GAGA factor along Drosophila larval polytene chromosomes. Polytene chromosomes were stained with antibodies against GAGA factor, followed by a fluoresceinlabelled secondary antibody. Note the large number of stained euchromatic sites and the unstained heterochromatic chromocenter (arrow). Current Biology 1995 5, 238-241DOI: (10.1016/S0960-9822(95)00048-0)
