基因转应

基因转应（Transvection）是两同源染色体互相配对后，一个染色体上某基因的调控序列（如强化子）促进或抑制另一染色体上该基因表现的现象，最早于1950年代由美国遗传学家爱德华·路易斯在黑腹果蝇基因组双胸复合群（英语：Bithorax complex）的UBX（英语：Ultrabithorax）基因发现[1]，随后果蝇的许多其他基因也被发现有此现象[2][3][4][5][6]，且后续研究在老鼠、人类、植物、真菌、线虫与昆虫中均发现了基因转应，显示其可能为广泛存在于真核生物的基因表现调控（英语：Regulation of gene expression）机制[7][8][9]。

基因转应一般为同源染色体彼此配对后，一个染色体的强化子等调控序列影响另一染色体基因的表现，染色体倒位可能因影响同源染色体配对而降低基因转应效率[10]。基因转应也能发生在非同源染色体之间，只要两者具有一小段同源序列而能互相配对即可[9]，另外曾有研究发现果蝇Abd-B基因不需染色体配对即可发生基因转应[11]。绝缘子可能有助于维持染色体配对的结构而可促进基因转应[9][12]。性染色体上的基因转应可能造成雌雄个体某基因表现的不同，如有研究显示果蝇Drosophila biarmipes（瑞典语：Drosophila biarmipes）一影响翅斑的基因仅在雄性表现，原因是雌性（XX）个体中此位点有基因转应抑制了该基因表现，雄性（XY）则因仅有一个X染色体而不发生基因转应，故能正常表现该基因[13]。
