Description

UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of a mutant form of erm containing only the zinc finger domains, fused at the N-terminal end to the VP16 activation domain, converting it to act solely as a transcriptional activator.

Expression of ermzf.Scer\UAS.T:Hsim\VP16 under the control of Scer\GAL4wor.PA results in a mild increase in the number of type II neuroblasts in the larval brain lobe.

Expression of ermzf.Scer\UAS.T:Hsim\VP16 under the control of an insertion of Scer\GAL4GMR9D11 that expresses in ase[+] immature Intermediate Neural Progenitors (INPs) (P{GMR9D11-GAL4}attP2) does not produce any supernumerary type II neuroblasts in the larval brain.

Expression of ermzf.Scer\UAS.T:Hsim\VP16 under the control of an insertion of Scer\GAL4GMR9D11 that expresses in ase[+] immature Intermediate Neural Progenitors (INPs) (P{GMR9D11-GAL4}attP2) has no effect on type II neuroblast number.

In contrast to when either transgene is expressed alone, co-expression of ermzf.Scer\UAS.T:Hsim\VP16 and kluScer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 under the control of an insertion of Scer\GAL4GMR9D11 that expresses in ase[+] immature Intermediate Neural Progenitors (INPs) (P{GMR9D11-GAL4}attP2) results in supernumerary type II neuroblasts in the larval brain.
