UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of EMC1, mutated to carry a P506R amino acid replacement and tagged at the C-terminal end with three copies of Tag:HA. The P506R change is equivalent to a P582R change in the orthologous human EMC1 gene, a variant identified in patients with severe developmental delay. The open reading frame is flanked by a pair of incompatible FRT sites (FRT5 and FRT2), which allows for future in vivo exchange of either the promoter or tag sequence.
