Figure 1.
Sequence of the Drosophila H2AV protein. The amino acid sequence used to generate the γ-H2AV antibody is shown in bold (FlyBase). The serine within this sequence is phosphorylated in response to DSB formation (Madigan et al. 2002). Sequence alignment of the C-terminal tail of the Drosophila H2AV to other eukaryotic H2AX can be found in Redon et al. (2002).
