A 3852 base pair fragment from the flanking non-coding or intronic region of dnc is fused upstream of a Drosophila core synthetic promoter (DSCP) followed by sequence encoding a lexA::p65 driver. The driver sequence has been optimized for Drosophila codon usage. An Hsp70 transcriptional terminator is present.
Expression driven by Ecol\lexAGMR13F02 overlaps with that driven by the split-GAL4 combinations Hsap\RELAAD.R52G04 and Scer\GAL4DBD.R49F03 that drive expression in the medulla columnar neuron VPN-MB2, and Scer\GAL4DBD.R10E05 and Hsap\RELAAD.R28F07 that drive expression in medulla columnar neuron MC63.
Ecol\lexAGMR13F02, SLC22AlexAop.cGa has abnormal memory | adult stage phenotype, suppressible by AceKK101926/Scer\GAL4GH146
Gthe\ACR1lexAop.d.EYFP/Ecol\lexAGMR13F02 is a suppressor | conditional | partially of abnormal locomotor behavior | adult stage | conditional phenotype of Cnoc\ChR1::Csub\ChRCsChrimson.IVS.20xUAS.Venus, Scer\GAL40273-G4

SLC22AlexAop.cGa/Ecol\lexAGMR13F02 is a suppressor of abnormal memory | adult stage phenotype of AceKK101926, Scer\GAL4GH146
Although alleles from the Janelia Farm lexA driver collection incorporate the same enhancer fragments used to create the Janelia Farm GAL4 driver alleles (GMR_Brain_exp_1), significant differences are frequently observed in the expression pattern of a given enhancer fragment inserted in the P{CaryP}attP40 or other docking site compared to the same fragment inserted in the P{CaryP}attP2 docking site. Generally the Ecol\lexA patterns are subsets of the Scer\GAL4 patterns.
