The P{attP.w+.attP} construct may be used for Recombination-Mediated Cassette Exchange. The mini-white gene is flanked by inverted attP sites. P{attP.w+.attP} is a derivative of P{UASTP2} (FBtp0021963) in which the UAS and TATA sequences adjacent to the attP-miniwhite-attP cassette have been removed. Specifically, P{UASTP2} was digested with BamHI and StuI to remove UAS-TATA-attP, and an attP-containing BamHI-EcoRV fragment from pTA-attP (described in Groth et al., 2000, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 97: 5995-6000) was inserted.
The sequence of P{attP.w+.attP} is given by Genbank accession EU761203.
