Transgenic construct used to study the properties of the bxd Polycomb response element (bxdPRE) from the Ubx gene. Contains a w+mC marker, a Ecol\lacZUbx.2212S2 reporter and 4 copies of the 77bp PF (PstI/HinfI) fragment of the bxdPRE.
4 copies of the 77bp PF (PstI/HinfI) fragment of the UbxPRE are inserted between the Ubx S2 enhancer and Ubx promoter sequences.
