UAS regulates expression of a Tag:HA-tagged Hsap\IRF2BPL cDNA clone (made to match the GenBank:NM_024496.3 transcript) containing a Glu172 nonsense mutation that introduces a premature termination codon downstream of the poly-glutamine tract and upstream of the first PEST sequence, resulting in a strong loss-of-function mutation. This Hsap\IRF2BPL variant is one of several identified in individuals affected with neurological symptoms.
PitsMI02926-TG4.1 heterozygous females expressing Hsap\IRF2BPLUAS.Tag:HA under the control of Scer\GAL4Pits-MI02926-TG4.1 (the intrinsic Gal4 driver of the PitsMI02926-TG4.1 allele) are viable.
