Molecular data
Construct: The Act5C promoter drives expression of Tn10\tetR tagged with T:Hsim\VP16.
Construct: The constitutive Act5C promoter and 5' untranslated region are fused to the coding region of the reverse tetracycline receptor, rtR, fused to the transcription activation domain of T:Hsim\VP16. The polyA sequences are from SV40.

Allele w+mC
Reference(s) (Bieschke et al., 1998)
Molecular data
Minigene of the white cDNA.
4.15kb SpeI fragment of the w gene that carries a deletion of a large part of the first intron and the regulatory region is reduced to 300bp preceding the transcription start site.
Construct: A 'mini-white' gene constructed by deletion of the HindIII-XbaI fragment from the long 5' intron. Carried by the Casper series of vectors.
