Additional
P{EPgy2} insertion lines were generated, mapped, and assessed for inclusion in the Gene Disruption Project collection; flanking sequence data were submitted to GenBank.
A set of transgenic insertion stocks derived by TE mobilization using the
P-element construct
P{EPgy2}; created and vetted by the Gene Disruption Project (GDP). The
P{EPgy2} construct carries two visible markers, the mini-white marker
w+mC and the mini-yellow marker
y+mDint2, and
Scer\UAS binding sites for the
Scer\GAL4 transcriptional regulator. The GAL4-UAS system allows regulated expression of genes proximate to the site of the insertion: genes properly oriented with respect to the
Scer\UAS sequences can be conditionally expressed via transgene-derived
Scer\GAL4 activity.
