Luciferase reporter assay.

Source was S2 cell line; bait produced from transfected construct; prey produced from transfected reporter construct.

Mutation of mir-279 increases upd1 mRNA levels.

Source was adult brain of mutant fly line; bait produced from endogenous gene; prey produced from endogenous gene.

Overexpression of mir-279 decreases upd1 mRNA levels.

Source was adult heads of transgenic fly line; bait produced from transgenic construct; prey produced from endogenous gene.
