Subject: Help FlyBase - wg-GAL4
Hi Alfonso,
I am a curating a paper for FlyBase:
Glise and Noselli, 1997, Genes Dev. 11(13): 1738
in which they discuss wg-GAL4 provided by you.
We do not have this constructs in FlyBase so could you please provide
molecular details of the construct (and any references of there are
any). I have also queried Stephane for this construct also but I thought
there was no harm in asking you too!
Thanks for your help,
Eleanor Whitfield

The piece that you want to know about is 7.8kb of 5' untranslated control
region of wg. This DNA provides all (ALL) functions for the embryonic
pattern and contains only a very small and not clear pattern from the
adult.
Let me know if this is OK
Alfonso
