UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of a constitutively active form of Egfr that consists of a signal peptide, the dimerization domain of the bacteriophage λ cI repressor (included to induce constitutive dimerization of the encoded protein), a 0.15kb of btl sequence that includes the transmembrane domain and a 1.9kb fragment that contains the 3' end of Egfr (this fragment includes the intracellular domain).
construct_comment: Progenitors are those of the plasmid, pP{UAS-Egfr.λtop}.See report for T:λ\cIDD.
report comment: Produces active form of Egfr with btl transmembrane domain and λ\cIDD dimerization domain; not dependent upon ligand-induced dimerization and thus results in constitutive activity. Regulated by UAS-binding species present.
