Fig 1. Component modules of the crb518 posterior spiracle minimal enhancer.
(A) Constructs designed to analyse the crb518 CRM (S and asterisks indicate the position of STAT92E binding sites). (B) crb518-lacZ reporter expression. (C) The crb313-lacZ reporter with the 1–204 bp region deleted loses posterior spiracle expression. (D) The crb101-lacZ reporter containing the STAT92E binding sites is unable to direct expression to the posterior spiracles. (E) The crb305-lacZ reporter is able to direct expression to the posterior spiracle and its expression is downregulated in embryos mutant for the Unpaired JAK/STAT ligands (F). (G) The crb204-lacZ reporter lacking the STAT92E binding sites is able to direct expression in the posterior spiracles and still requires JAK/STAT function as in unpaired null mutants its activity in the posterior spiracles is abolished (H). Arrowheads: posterior spiracle primordium.
