Description

An elav promoter regulates expression of a VP16(AD)::Zip+ hemidriver (component of a 'split driver' system, contains the VP16 activation domain). The hemidriver sequence includes the Tag:NLS(SV40-largeT) nuclear localization signal. An internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) from the Ubx gene followed by DsRed(Unk) coding sequence is present downstream of the hemidriver sequence, but this is not expressed in the nervous system.
