Gene Snapshot

vulcan (vlc) is induced above a basal level by 20-hydroxyecdysone in late third instar larvae. Its mutants die primarily as pharate adults with defects in ecdysone-induced leg morphogenesis. [Date last reviewed: 2019-03-21]

Additional Descriptive Data

The 2.7kb and 3.0kb vlc transcripts are detected in third instar larvae. Levels increase in late third instar larvae. Both transcripts are present in third instar larvae but the 3.0kb transcript predominates at puparium formation. vlc transcripts are induced by ecdysone.

Please Note This section lists cDNAs and ESTs that fall within the genomic extent of the gene model, which may include cDNAs and ESTs of genes within introns, or of overlapping genes. Please see GBrowse for alignment of the cDNAs and ESTs to the gene model.

cDNA clones, fully sequences

BDGP DGC clones

Other clones

Drosophila Genomics Resource Center cDNA clones

For each fully sequenced cDNA the DGRC maintains various forms of the cDNA (e.g tagged or untagged) in several different host vectors for subsequent cloning and expression in Drosophila and Drosophila cell lines.

Origin and Etymology

Discoverer

Etymology

The gene is named "vulcan" (after the malformed leg phenotype of mutants) after the Roman god who broke both his legs as he fell to earth upon being thrown from heaven by Jupiter.
