Abstract
A transcription unit was identified in the 43E polytene band region of the second chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster (Dm) whose putative translation product has 85% amino acid (aa) identity with the B subunit of the calcineurin protein (CnB) from humans. Unlike the previously described intronless Dm CnB gene homologue, which is located within the 4F band region of the X chromosome, the coding region of this second CnB is found to be interrupted by three introns. Conceptual translation of both Dm CnB genes predict proteins of identical size that are 98% identical in aa sequence. Northern blot analyses indicate that Dm pupae and adults express two different CnB-encoding transcripts that are differentially regulated.
