Insertion lines from this collection were mapped and assessed for inclusion in the Gene Disruption Project collection; flanking sequence data were submitted to GenBank.
A set of transgenic insertion stocks derived by TE mobilization using the P-element construct P{EP}. The P{EP} construct construct carries a w+mC mini-white visible marker, Scer\UAS binding sites for the Scer\GAL4 transcriptional regulator, and bacterial sequences that allow plasmid rescue. The GAL4-UAS system allows regulated expression of genes proximate to the site of the insertion: genes properly oriented with respect to the Scer\UAS sequences can be conditionally expressed via transgene-derived Scer\GAL4 activity.
EP(X)0351
Third instar larvae expressing P{EP}PargEP351 under the control of Scer\GAL4Pxn.PS have a normal number of sessile hemocytes. The number of hemocytes in circulation is also similar to wild type. The dorsal sessile hemocyte department is disrupted. Sessile hemocytes do not accumulate along the dorsal vessel or spread through the cuticle. The lymph gland is enlarged. Hemocyte shape is normal.
