Split-QF System for Fine-Tuned Transgene Expression in Drosophila.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The Q-system is a binary expression system that works well across species. Here, we report the development and demonstrate the applications of a split-QF system that drives strong expression in Drosophila, is repressible by QS, and is inducible by a small nontoxic molecule (quinic acid). The split-QF system is fully compatible with existing split-GAL4 and split-LexA lines, thus greatly expanding the range of possible advanced intersectional experiments and anatomical, physiological, and behavioral assays in Drosophila, and in other organisms.
