Germline silencing of UASt depends on the piRNA pathway

2018-03-28

Abstract excerpt

One of the most extensively used techniques in Drosophila is the Gal4/UAS binary system, which allows tissue-specific misexpression or knockdown of specific genes of interest. The original UAS vector, UASt, can only be activated for transgene expression in somatic tissues and not in the germline cells. Rørth (1998) generated UASp, a modified UAS vector that is responsive to Gal4 in both somatic and germline tissu...
