Abstract
Knowing the genomic distribution of chromosomal proteins and of histone modifications provides essential insight into function. The giant polytene chromosomes of the Drosophila larval salivary glands provide a high-resolution genomic map with a resolution exceeded only by chromatin immunoprecipitation. Immunofluorescence localization of chromosomal proteins and specific post-translational modifications of histones is a simple and rapid tool for the functional genomics of chromosomal proteins.
