Comments concerning location

Approximate (+/-3 bases) location of the P{EP}sanoGE12233 insertion site. The insertion site was reported as -352 relative to the upstream sano transcription start but it is unclear what coordinate was used as the transcription start.

(Alves et al., 2014)

The insertion site was reported as 104 bp upstream of the sano upstream transcription start site; the start site used was not unambiguously defined.

Additional Information
Statement
Reference

ScerGAL4sano drives expression in nine gustatory receptor neurons of which three are located in the hypophysis and six in the terminal organ. Four of the six neurons in the terminal organ co-express ScerGAL4Gr66a.3.153, a marker for salt-responsive neurons. Additional expression is detected in a small number of other neurons of the third instar larva.
