Fig. 3. Genetic control of 3'ato348-
ßgal expression by RD factors.(A-C) Wild-type L3 eye
discs (A) stained for ß-gal (blue) to detect expression of the
3'ato348- ßgal reporter, and
for the pan-neural marker Elav (brown) to detect developing neuronal clusters.
The 3'ato348- ßgal reporter
is not expressed and neurons do not form in so1 (B) or
eya2 (C) mutant discs. (D-F)
dpp-Gal4-driven expression of Ey (D) or So+Eya (E) in the wing disc
activates expression of the
3'ato348-ßgal reporter. A
negative control (dpp-gal4 alone) is shown in F; the inset shows the
pattern of Gal4 expression in a dpp-Gal4 UAS-lacZ wing disc.
(G) dpp-Gal4-driven expression of Ey (D) is not sufficient to
induce the 3'ato348- ßgal
reporter in the so1 mutant.
