Figure 4


Fig. 4. Ubx and Mad/Med binding sites collaborate to repress sal expression in the haltere. Schematics above each panel highlight the relevant changes to CREs. (A,B) Haltere imaginal discs from transgenic Drosophila carrying sal1.1 reporter constructs with mutations either in Ubx binding sites 5 and 6 or in the M1 site. The level and pattern of derepression is identical whether Ubx sites 5 and 6 or the M1 site are mutated. (C) Mutations in Ubx binding sites 5 and 6 in a subelement of the sal1.1 CRE, sal328, derepress the reporter gene lacZ in haltere discs. (D) The addition of one copy of Ubx binding site 5 to both the 5' and 3' ends of sal328koU5&6 (sal328koU5&6+2-U5) is insufficient to repress reporter gene expression in the haltere. (E) The vgB CRE is expressed along the dorsal-ventral compartment boundary in both the wing (W) and haltere (H) imaginal discs. (F) The addition of two cassettes, each containing four copies of Ubx binding site 5, to the 5' and 3' ends of the vgB is not sufficient to impart Ubx-dependent repression in the haltere imaginal disc.
