Description

UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of wun2 tagged with Tag:MYC. β-globin 5' UTR sequences have also been added to the 5' end of the wun2 cDNA to enhance message stability and translation.

Detailed Description

Embryos expressing wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4da.G32 have reduced numbers of germ cells.

Expression of wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC in somatic cells under the control of Scer\GAL4twi.PG results in germ cell death in stage 15/16 embryos.

Expression of wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC in the primordial germ cells (under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.PG) does not increase apoptosis.

Expression of wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4twi.PG results in a reduction in the number of germ cells in the embryo.

Expression of wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of both Scer\GAL4twi.PG and Scer\GAL4how-24B in embryos results in a germ cell migration phenotype. Expression of wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16 in embryos results in a germ cell migration phenotype.

Expression of wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4btl.PS completely rescues the tracheal defects that are seen in embryos lacking both maternal and zygotic wun and wun2 function.

Expression of wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of either Scer\GAL4how-24B or Scer\GAL4drm.7.1 fails to rescue the tracheal defects that are seen in embryos lacking both maternal and zygotic wun and wun2 function.

Very few animals which lack both maternal and zygotic wun and wun2 function (derived from females containing double mutant wun49 wun2EP2650ex34 germline clones mated to Df(2R)wun-GL/+ or Ab(2;?)wunCE/+ males) survive to adulthood. This lethality is only partially rescued by expression of wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4btl.PS.

Expression of wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16 rescues the germ cell death in embryos derived from females carrying homozygous wun49 wun2EP2650ex34 germline clones and wild type males.

Homozygous srp2 suppresses the germ cell death seen at embryonic stage 15/16 when wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC is expressed under the control of Scer\GAL4twi.PG.

Expression of wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC in the central nervous system, under the control of Scer\GAL49-201av restores bilateral sorting of primordial germ cells in a Df(2R)wun-GL (lacking both wun and wun2) background. Rescue is not complete however, as not all primordial germ cells reach a gonad.

Homozygosity for Df(3L)H99 does not suppress the reduction in germ cell number seen in embryos expressing wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4twi.PG.

Comments

The germ cell death seen in embryos with a wun2+ soma which are derived from wun2EP2650ex34/Df(2R)wun-GL females is rescued by expression of wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16.

Expression of wun2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16 in the germ cells partially suppresses the reduction in germ cell number seen in embryos expressing wun2αTub84B.T:Hsap\MYC in the soma.
