An Hsp70 promoter drives expression of a cDNA encoding the mys 4A splice variant.
Schneider line 2 cells coexpressing ifC.hs and mys4A.hs which have been treated with protease to clear surface proteins and ECM show spreading on a substrate coated with a protein containing the Tig RGD. Schneider line 2 cells coexpressing ifC.hs and mys4A.hs also show spreading if they are not pretreated with protease and are grown in normal growth medium with serum on an uncoated substrate.
Shift up experiments show significant rescue of the wing blister and eye phenotypes of mys11 clones.
Carried in a plasmid, transfected into S2 cells and used in cell spreading assays.
