Abstract
The protein synthesis pattern of a set of stage and tissue specific proteins has previously been described in Drosophila melanogaster. The analysis of this set of follicle cell proteins (Fc proteins) is here extended to cover several sibling species of Drosophila melanogaster, namely D. simulans, D. mauritiana, D. erecta and D. yakuba. Even though a similar set of proteins were synthesized in these species, minor differences in size of the proteins were found between the species. Some of the species exhibited variation within species.
