title: Isolation and characterization of cDNA complementary to transient maternal poly(A)+ RNA from the Drosophila oocyte.
abstract: cDNA complementary to total oocyte poly(A)+ RNA from Drosophila melanogaster was enriched for sequences complementary to transient maternal sequences; that is, those sequences which disappear from the oocyte during subsequent. A seven- to ten-fold enrichment factor was obtained, from 5.3% to about 50% of the total cDNA. Kinetic analysis of this enriched fraction indicates that the transient maternal sequences include 44 +/- 14 different sequences.
