Amino acids 340-737 are deleted.
When transiently transformed with Scer\GAL4Act5C.PHb into S2 cells, did not promote a cell aggregation phenotype.
Scer\GAL4btl.PS/shgdCR4h.UAS.sgGFP partially rescues Df(2R)E2/shg2
The addition of shgdCR4h.Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-rs, driven by Scer\GAL4btl.PS, into shg2/Df(2R)E2 flies partially rescues their tracheal fusion phenotype producing incomplete dorsal trunk fusions.
Carried in a plasmid and co transfected with Scer\GAL4Act5C.PHb into S2 cells.
