Naturally occurring deletions of hunchback binding sites in the even-skipped stripe 3+7 enhancer.
Changes in regulatory DNA contribute to phenotypic differences within and between taxa. Comparative studies show that many transcription factor binding sites (TFBS) are conserved between species whereas functional studies reveal that some mutations segregating within species alter TFBS function. Con...
