The following information accompanied stocks donated to the Bloomington Drosophila Stock Center by James Mahaffey at the North Carolina State University:
P{UAS-disco.C102G} Expresses disco with a C102G mutation under the control of UAS. This mutant is defective in DNA binding. It is described in Mukund Patel's thesis: "Disconnected, a C2H2 Zinc Finger Protein has a role in Appendage Formation and Gene Regulation in Drosophila.” North Carolina State University.
P{UAS-disco.C102G}3 is a third chromosome insertion, homozygous viable and fertile.
P{UAS-disco.C94G.C127S} Expresses disco with C94G and C127S double mutations under the control of UAS. This mutant is defective in DNA binding. It is described in Mukund Patel's thesis: "Disconnected, a C2H2 Zinc Finger Protein has a Role in Appendage Formation and Gene Regulation in Drosophila.” North Carolina State University.
P{UAS-disco.C94G.C127S}3 is a third chromosome insertion, homozygous viable and fertile.
P{UAS-disco.ALAFS} Expresses disco with the CTBP interaction region (PLDFS) mutated to ALAFS under the control of UAS. This mutant no longer binds to CTBP based on yeast two-hybrid assays, as described in Mukund Patel's thesis: "Disconnected, a C2H2 Zinc Finger Protein has a Role in Appendage Formation and Gene Regulation in Drosophila.” North Carolina State University.
P{UAS-disco.ALAFS}3 is a third chromosome insertion, homozygous viable and fertile.
P{UAS-disco-r.M} is an unpublished construct made by James Mahaffey, North Carolina State University. It expresses disco-r under the control of UAS.
P{UAS-disco-r.M}2 an second chromosome insertion, homozygous viable and fertile.
