FlyBase Recombinant Construct Report: P{Mef2-GAL4.247}

Drives expression in the whole of the alpha and beta lobes, with stronger expression being detected in the surface and posterior subdivisions. In the gamma lobe, the main body of the lobe stains stronger than the dorsomedial tip.

(FlyBase Curators, 2017)

Stains a large set of embryonic- and larval-born gamma neurons as well as glial cells in the ventral nerve cord.

(Pauls et al., 2010)

Expression of ScerGAL4^Mef2.247 is stronger in the alpha/beta and gamma mushroom body lobes than in the alpha'/beta' mushroom body lobes.

(Tan et al., 2010)

Expression is limited to alpha, beta, and gamma neurons in the adult mushroom body.

(Blum et al., 2009)

In the mushroom body, ScerGAL4^Mef2.247 drives expression in the whole of the alpha and beta lobes, with stronger expression being detected in the surface and posterior subdivisions. In the gamma lobe, the main body of the lobe stains stronger than the dorsomedial tip.

(Aso et al., 2009)

Expression is found in only a few alpha'/beta' neurons.
