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)1556
Location X:11415889-11415890 confirmed by FlyBase alignment of dbGSS accession AQ025496 to D. melanogaster arm Release_4 and heterochromatin Release_3.2b. Insertion orientation confirmed.
insertion of mobile activating element
May be multiple insertion line: in situ data (2C1--2C2) conflict with location inferred from flanking sequence (10C7).
