Question 2:
EVEG92 is the one used to make the 86T, delta ES, and delta NS. The 86T
construct has a \+8.6kb endpoint, and both delta ES and NS have a \+9.2kb
endpoint. A wild type construct that has either endpoint gives the same
expression pattern.
thanks, rolf

Dear Chihiro,
in the pers. communication, please, include Miki Fujioka, who made the T86
construct and related transgenic insertion lines. J48 and J43 are
insertion lines of the delta ES and delta NS construct, respectively
(+9.2kb endpoint). In fact, we tested another delta ES insertion line,
J49, which also abolished mesodermal expression, as J48.
I hope this clarifies the issue. thanks, rolf
