Dataset

A set of transgenic insertion stocks derived by TE mobilization using the Tni\piggyBac-based construct PBac{RB}. The PBac{RB} construct carries the w[+mC] mini-white marker, a single long (199-bp) Scer\FRT site, and a "splice trap," a splice acceptor site derived from a D. melanogaster gene. The FRT site allows Scer\FLP-mediated recombination between other FRT-containing elements, and thus can be used to generate molecularly defined deletions.
PBac{RB} insertion lines from Exelixis were remapped and assessed for inclusion in the Gene Disruption Project collection; flanking sequence data were submitted to GenBank.

hide Detailed Description
Statement
Reference
Homozygous or wol[e04276]/Df(2L)BSC111 larvae hatch and have a wild type cuticle by light microscopy. They eventually die after one moult without displaying any obvious phenotype. Removal of maternal wol in wol[e04276] germline clones results in larvae with patterning and morphological defects, the most prominent being the failure to form a normal head skeleton. The cuticle is discontinuous and the body contours are irregular. At the edges of ruptures, the cuticle is often melanized. Specialized cuticle structures such as denticles are present. Removal of maternal and zygotic wol in wol[e04276] germline clones causes additional reduction in cuticle deposition and a complete failure of denticle formation and melanization.
