The full-length eve stripe 3+7 enhancer (a 500bp region extending from position -3.8kb to -3.3kb relative to the eve transcription start site), is fused upstream of the eve TATA box and basal promoter, 100bp eve 5' untranslated leader and the first 22 codons of the protein coding sequence fused to codon 5 of lacZ.
In embryo, expressed stripes 3 and 7, a subset of the normal 7 eve stripes; expression in stripe 3 stronger than that in stripe 7. A small dorsal and anterior patch of expression is also observed; this is shown to be due to vector sequences in the P-transposon construct.
Reflects expression of eve stripes 3 and 7.
