13xlexaop2 mcd8 gfp

The 13XLexAOp2-mCD8-GFP is a genetic construct that expresses the membrane-bound form of the green fluorescent protein (mCD8-GFP) under the control of a multimerized LexA operator (13XLexAOp2) promoter. This construct can be used to visualize cellular membranes and study cell morphology in various biological applications.

Drosophila Embryogenesis and Larval Development

Drosophila melanogaster were reared in cages at 25°C, unless indicated otherwise. Embryos were collected onto freshly yeasted apple juice plates overnight and staged according to Campos-Ortega and Hartenstein (1985) . For larval experiments, larvae were picked within 1 h of hatching [designated 0 h after larval hatching (ALH)], transferred to a yeasted food plate and reared to the desired stage before dissection.
The following stocks were used: w1118, GAL4c855a (Manseau et al., 1997 (link)), R9D11-mCD8-GFP (Zhu et al., 2011 (link)), R9D11-CD4-tdTomato (Han et al., 2011 (link)), (miR-7)E>GFP (Li et al., 2009 (link)), wg-LacZ (1-en-11) (Kassis et al., 1992), hhP30 (Lee et al., 1992 (link)) and HLHmγ-GFP (Almeida and Bray, 2005 (link)). The following stocks were obtained from the Bloomington Drosophila Stock Center: dpp-lacZExel.2 (#8411), UAS-myr-mRFP (#7119), R31H09-GAL4 (#49694), R29C07-GAL4 (‘ogre-GAL4’, #49340) and pnt-GFP.FPTB (#42680). To perform FLEXAMP, we crossed flies carrying yw; tub-Gal80ts, UAS-flp; act>y+>LHV2deltaRFP-86Fb (LexA) (Yagi et al., 2010 (link)) to flies carrying 13XLexAOp2-mCD8-GFP (Bloomington #32205), R31H09-GAL4 and tub-GAL80ts (Bloomington #7019).

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.
