Cytology
Description

The FRT cassette has been excised, allowing the Act5C promoter to drive expression of a mutant form of the pk isoform of pk lacking the C-terminal prenylation motif. The protein is tagged with EGFP.

      Comments

      Expression of pkΔCaaX.Act5C.pk.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP fails to rescue the wing planar polarity phenotype seen in pkpk-sple-13 mutant wings.

      Expression of pkΔCaaX.Act5C.pk.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP partially rescues the eye planar polarity phenotype seen in pkpk-sple-13 mutant flies. The misrotation is rescued, but the chirality defects are still present.
