The Tj-Gal4 is a genetic tool used in Drosophila research. It serves as a driver line, expressing the yeast transcriptional activator Gal4 under the control of the tj (tailless) gene promoter. The Tj-Gal4 line can be used to drive the expression of target genes in a specific pattern during Drosophila development.

Drosophila melanogaster flies were raised on standard media; stocks were kept at room temperature and crosses were reared at 25°C or 29°C as indicated. Four Gal4 fly lines were used to induce transgene expression: dpp-Gal4, UAS-GFP/TM6B (Swarup et al., 2015 (link)), Dll-lacZ/Cyo; Hh-Gal4/TM6B (Hall et al., 2017 (link)), tj-Gal4/tj-Gal4 (a gift from Dr Nicholas Harden, Simon Fraser University; Vlachos et al., 2015 (link)), and apterous (ap)-Gal4 (Bloomington Drosophila Stock Center, 3041). Additional stocks used were: puc-LacZ (Martin-Blanco et al., 1998 (link)) and UAS-dsh (Bloomington Drosophila Stock Center, 9453). As controls, the Gal4 drivers were crossed with w1118 or UAS-GFP flies. To generate transgenic UAS stock lines, patient variant Flag-tagged DVL1 constructs were sent for integration into the attP40 locus on the second chromosome for generation of stably integrated fly strains (BestGene, CA, USA).

Rab5Z1 was an EMS allele generated in our lab; Rab52 was from Marcos González; UAS-Rab5 GFP/TM3, UAS-Rab5 RNAi/CyO, and UAS-Rab5 RNAi/TM3 were from Xinhua Lin; C587-GAL4 was from Ting Xie; nosGAL4VP16 was from Ruth Lehmann; pucE69 (puc-lacZ) was from Joaquim Culi; kek1-lacZ is an enhancer trap line (BB142) from T. Schüpbach; UAS-YFP-Rab5 (BL24616), UAS-TSG101-RNAi (BL35710), UAS-Vps25-RNAi (BL26286), UAS-avl-RNAi (BL29546), UAS-Cdc42-RNAi (BL28021), dppP10638 (dpp-lacZ), tj-GAL4, tub-GAL80ts, UAS-dpp-RNAi (BL25782), UAS-bskDN, UAS-hepCA, and 2L deficiency flies were from Bloomington Drosophila Stock Center.
Fly stocks were maintained under standard culture conditions and all flies were dissected 0–2 days after eclosion unless otherwise indicated. For GAL4/GAL80ts controlled RNAi or gene expression, flies were raised at 18 or 25°, shifted to 29° upon eclosion, and aged at 29° for 5 days before dissection. Germline or somatic cyst cell specific clones were generated by expressing FLP with nosGAL4VP16 or C587GAL4 (Kawase et al. 2004 (link)), respectively.

Drosophila Genetic Manipulation Protocols

Flies were reared on standard cornmeal medium at 25°C. The following strains were used: w1118, daughterless-Gal4, nos-Gal4, tj-Gal4; Bloomington Drosophila Stock Center: UAS-Caf1-55-IR2 (catalog 34069), w[*];Caf1-55[p55-1]/TM3, Sb[1] (catalog 68168); UAS-Caf1-55 (provided by Rongwen Xi, National Institute of Biological Sciences, Beijing, China); and Tsinghua Fly Center: UAS-Caf1-55-IR1 (THU0589).
To generate UAS-RBBP7, UAS-RBBP7Δ, and UAS-Caf1-55Δ transgenic flies, we amplified the full-length RBBP7 cDNA, mutant RBBP7 cDNA, and mutant Caf1-55 cDNA and cloned each of them into separate pUAST-attb vectors. These constructs were then transformed into 25C6 line embryos using the standard P-element–mediated transgenesis protocol.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
