A fusion between amino acids 1-345 of tin and amino acids 184-318 of Mmus\Nkx2-5 is expressed under the control of UASt regulatory sequences. The homeodomain has amino acids 55-60 altered from SKRGD to CKRQR.
Scer\GAL4twi.PB, tin::Mmus\Nkx2-5UAS.tin-Nkx, Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR is a suppressor of visceral mesoderm phenotype of tinEC40
Scer\GAL4twi.PB, tin::Mmus\Nkx2-5UAS.tin-Nkx, Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR is a suppressor of embryonic/larval heart & mesoderm phenotype of tinEC40
Rescues cardiac and visceral mesoderm defects of tinEC40 when expression is driven by Scer\GAL4twi.PB and Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR.
