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(3)3729
Location 3L:8334929-8334930 determined by FlyBase alignment of dbGSS accession AQ073151 to D. melanogaster arm Release_4 and heterochromatin Release_3.2b. Insertion orientation revised.
In(1)FM7/X ; svspa-pol females carrying P{EP}EP3729 do not show an increase in the level of X or fourth chromosome nondisjunction compared to controls.
