UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of the kis-RA (long) isoform, mutated to carry a K2060R amino acid substitution in the highly conserved ATP binding motif; this is expected to result in an an ATPase-dead version of the protein. The coding sequence is tagged at the N-terminal end with Tag:polyHis and at the C-terminal end with Tag:FLAG.
kisK2060R.UAS.L.Tag:polyHis,Tag:FLAG/Scer\GAL4Tub.PU partially rescues kis10D26
Expressing kisK2060R.UAS.L.Tag:polyHis,Tag:FLAG under the control of Scer\GAL4Tub.PU partially rescues the increased overall number of cells and of intestinal stem cells in somatic clones homozygous for kis10D26.
