Subject: Insertions of fringe construct
Dated: 16 June 2004
Background: Some additional information from Ken Irvine about an insertion
already in the Bloomington collection has led to a symbol change. He also
provided information on two additional insertions that are not yet in FlyBase.
New valid symbol for existing insertion:
FBti Valid Symbol Synonyms Synonym Comment
FBti0015591 P{UAS-fng.K}27 UAS-fng27 This is the symbol used by the
Irvine lab
P{UAS-fng.K}JK1 This is the symbol that was used
at the stock center between
5/18/2000 and 6/16/2004.
New insertions (new to FlyBase):
Symbol Synonym Phenotype and location
P{UAS-fng.K}22A UAS-fng22A viable, fertile insertion on chromosome 2
P{UAS-fng.K}22B UAS-fng22B viable, fertile insertion on chromosome 2
Comment from K. Irvine: 'The original UAS-fng22 stock had multiple
insertions on the second chromosome \- we later sorted them out into two
single insertions, which we called UAS-fng22A and UAS-fng22B, and a
chromosome with both insertions, which we call UAS-fng22C.'
