P{XP} insertion lines from Exelixis were remapped 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{XP}. The P{XP} construct carries the w+mC mini-white marker, long (199-bp) Scer\FRT sites, and is designed to allow flexible use of Scer\UAS sites for Scer\GAL4-driven misexpression of adjacent genes. FRT sites allow Scer\FLP-mediated recombination between other FRT-containing elements, and thus can be used to generate molecularly defined deletions.
The insertion site location is not known precisely because of low quality sequence in the region of the vector-flank junction. However, it is most likely between positions 3R:26725235..26725255 (release 6), upstream of CG6420, but very close to the annotated 5' end.
