A heat-shock promoter regulates expression of the entire Blimp-1 coding region obtained from cDNA clone RE26660, tagged with Tag:FLAG.
abnormal developmental rate | prepupal stage | heat sensitive
Using the heat-inducible Blimp-1hs.T:Zzzz\FLAG line, pupation timing is significantly delayed by around 1 and 2hrs when heat shock is received at 4 and 5hr APF respectively, compared to controls.
