Fig. 7. Activation of the SCR target gene PB by ectopically expressed
disco and Scr. (A) The ectopic expression of Scr,
using the prd-Gal4 driver, sometimes results in weak PB activation in
some affected segments. The embryo shown was chosen because it was among the
most strongly staining for PB accumulation. (B) By contrast, expressing both
disco and Scr in embryos caused significantly increased
ectopic PB accumulation, easily visible in each affected segment in all
expressing embryos. mx, maxillary; lb, labial; t2, second thoracic; a,
abdominal segments.
