Abstract Background Insulator elements are proposed to play a key role in the organization of the regulatory architecture of the genome. In Drosophila one of the best studied is the gypsy retrotransposon insulator which is bound by the Suppressor of Hairy-wing Su Hw transcriptional regulator. Immunolocalization studies suggest that there are several hundred Su Hw sites in the genome but few of these endogenous Su Hw binding sites have been identified. Results We used chromatin immunopurification with genomic microarray analysis to identify in vivo Su Hw binding sites across the 3 megabase Adh region. We find 60 sites and these enabled the construction of a robust new Su Hw binding site consensus. In contrast to the gypsy insulator which contains tightly clustered Su Hw binding sites endogenous sites generally occur as isolated sites. These .
