A set of transgenic insertion stocks derived by TE mobilization using the P-element construct P{GawB}. The P{GawB} construct carries a w+mW.hs mini-white visible marker and Scer\GAL4 driver/enhancer trap sequences. The GAL4-UAS system is a binary system using Scer\GAL4, a yeast transcription activator protein gene, and Scer\UAS, the DNA binding site for the GAL4 protein. The P{GawB} construct acts as an enhancer trap: expression of the GAL4 is sensitive to enhancers in the genomic region of an insertion. When paired with a construct or insertion carrying a reporter gene downstream of Scer\UAS, the reporter gene is driven by and reflects the expression of the GAL4.
ScerGAL4NP2242 drives expression in one serotonergic fine arborization relay interneuron. Its cell body is positioned in the posterior cell body rind and it innervates all antennal lobe glomeruli and the antennal lobe hub.
Location 2L:10474371-10474372 refined by FlyBase alignment of dbGSS accession AG216350 to D. melanogaster arm Release_4 and heterochromatin Release_3.2b. Insertion orientation revised.
