Construct: Amino acid replacement: Y225W.
Expression of wun2Y225W.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of both Scer\GAL4twi.PG and Scer\GAL4how-24B in embryos results in a germ cell migration defect.
Scer\GAL4VP16.nanos.UTR/wun2Y225W.UAS.Tag:MYC partially rescues wun2αTub84B.Tag:MYC
The germ cell death seen in embryos with a wun2+ soma which are derived from wun2EP2650ex34/Df(2R)wun-GL females is rescued by expression of wun2Y225W.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16.
Expression of wun2Y225W.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16 in the germ cells partially suppresses the reduction in germ cell number seen in embryos expressing wun2αTub84B.T:Hsap\MYC in the soma.
