Transgenic construct used to study the gypsy insulator. Contains the entire y gene, including the wing and body enhancers. A loxP cassette containing a 430bp gypsy\su(Hw)BR insulator sequence has been inserted between the y enhancers and the y coding region at position -893 (relative to the y transcription start site). The w+mC minigene is present downstream of the y sequence.
construct_comment: Contains the entire y gene, including the wing and body enhancers. A P1\loxP cassette containing gypsy\su(Hw)BR430 is inserted at -893bp relative to the transcription start site, separating the y wing and body enhancers from the y promoter and coding region. w+mC is located downstream of the y gene.
