Description

A 2600 base pair fragment from the flanking non-coding or intronic region of mam 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.

Reference

EcollexAGMR27H08 neurons have distinct projections in the ventral adult subesophageal zone but show overlapping aborizations with zone C and E Johnston organ neurons in the antennal mechanosensory and motor center driven by ScerGAL4NP6303 or ScerGAL4NP6250, and close proximity to the following neuron projections; antennal grooming brain interneuron 1 projections as labelled by the split-GAL4 pair ScerGAL4DBD.R34C03 and HsapRELAAD.R11B11, antennal grooming brain interneuron 2 projections as labelled by the split-GAL4 pair ScerGAL4DBD.R26B12 and HsapRELAAD.R24C08, antennal grooming descending neuron 1 projections as labelled by the split-GAL4 pair ScerGAL4DBD.R71D01 and HsapRELAAD.R18C11, and antennal grooming descending neuron 2 projections as labelled by the split-GAL4 pair ScerGAL4DBD.R18C11 and HsapRELAAD.R76F12. Positive GRASP (GFP reconstitution across synaptic partners) signals were seen between C/E Johnston organ neurons and antennal grooming brain interneurons 1 & 2, antennal grooming descending neuron 1 and antennal grooming descending neuron 2 using the respective driver combinations above.

Detailed Description

Reference

Thermogenetic activation (using TrpA113xlexAop.JFRC26 at 30-31[o]C) of Ecol\lexAGMR27H08 neurons results in a significant increase of antennal grooming behavior compared to control flies.

Inhibition of synaptic release (using Ctet\TeTxLCTNT.Scer\UAS) in neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R60E02 and Hsap\RELAAD.R52F12 or Scer\GAL4DBD.R34C03 and Hsap\RELAAD.R11B11 or Scer\GAL4DBD.R71D01 and Hsap\RELAAD.R11B11 or Scer\GAL4DBD.R26B12 and Hsap\RELAAD.R24C08 or Scer\GAL4DBD.R26B12 and Hsap\RELAAD.R26A02 significantly partially suppresses the increase in antennal grooming seen in flies with thermogenetic activation (using TrpA113xlexAop.JFRC26 at 30-31[o]C) of Ecol\lexAGMR27H08 neurons.

Inhibition of synaptic release (using Ctet\TeTxLCTNT.Scer\UAS) in Scer\GAL4GMR27H08 neurons significantly partially suppresses the increase in antennal grooming seen in flies with thermogenetic activation (using TrpA113xlexAop.JFRC26 at 30-31[o]C) of Ecol\lexAGMR27H08 neurons.

Inhibition of synaptic release (using Ctet\TeTxLCTNT.Scer\UAS) in Scer\GAL4GMR18C11 neurons does not significantly suppress the increase in antennal grooming seen in flies with thermogenetic activation (using TrpA113xlexAop.JFRC26 at 30-31[o]C) of Ecol\lexAGMR27H08 neurons.

Comments

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.
