title: Developmental G6PD polymorphism in Drosophila melanogaster: evidence for non-structural variants.
abstract: G6PD isozyme variation in Drosophila melanogaster is investigated in the larval stage through electrophoretic and genetic analyses. As current structural models for this gene-enzyme system fail to apply in these laboratory populations, the authors suggest a regulatory hypothesis to explain their observations.
