UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of a DsRed(Unk) fluorescent protein. A genomic fragment containing the mir-989 pre-miRNA hairpin has been inserted into the DsRed(Unk) 3'UTR.
Expression of mir-989Scer\UAS.T:Disc\RFP under the control of Scer\GAL4Bx-MS1096 results in curved wings with thicker veins than normal. Veins L4 and L5 do not reach the wing margin.
Expression of mir-989Scer\UAS.T:Disc\RFP under the control of Scer\GAL4sd-SG29.1 results in curved wings which are smaller than normal. Veins L4 and L5 do not reach the wing margin and the margin is irregular.
Expression of mir-989Scer\UAS.T:Disc\RFP under the control of Scer\GAL4Bx-MS1096 results in loss of wing veins.
