Reference(s) (Lozovsky et al., 2002, Berghammer et al., 1999, Horn et al., 2000)
Molecular data
Construct: Artificial promoter containing three binding sites for Mmus\Pax6 homodimers in front of a TATA box drives the expression of the enhanced variant of Avic\GFP (EGFP).
Three tandem repeats of an artificially derived Mmus\Pax6 homodimer binding site are fused upstream of a TATA box driving expression of "EGFP".

Reference(s) (Lozovsky et al., 2002)
Molecular data
Construct: Insertion of 1.3kb fragment containing Avic\GFPE.3xP3 in the SalI site at position 349 of the M{Mos1} element. The Avic\GFPE.3xP3 marker gene is transcribed in the opposite orientation to the Dmau\mariner\T open reading frame.

hide Comments
construct_comment: One of several constructs used to test feasibilty of using Avic\GFP as a \'universal marker.\' Tested in D. melanogaster and Tribolium castaneum.
construct_comment: Non-autonomous; Dmau\mariner\T disrupted.Tested in D.melanogaster.
report comment: GFP expression driven by multimer of an idealized ey/Mmus\Pax6 binding site (P3), resulting in high levels of expression in the eye.
