Description

UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of two copies of a 1.4kb genomic fragment spanning exons 2-4 of w which are arranged in an inverted repeat (with no spacer between the two copies of w sequence).

      Reference

      Eye colour: expression of wdsRNA.Scer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4Act5C.PI in w+/w- heterozygous females results in an appreciable reduction in eye pigmentation. The red pigment content is about 3% that of control flies. The phenotype is variable, with many flies having a variegated eye colour phenotype.
