Endogenous epitope tagging of a JAK/STAT ligand Unpaired1 in Drosophila
Unpaired1 (Upd1) is a ligand of the Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) signaling pathway in Drosophila. In this study, using the CRISPR/Cas9 technique, we generate a transgenic fly strain in which a hemagglutinin (HA) epitope tag sequence is inserted into the en...

Sumario: | Unpaired1 (Upd1) is a ligand of the Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) signaling pathway in Drosophila. In this study, using the CRISPR/Cas9 technique, we generate a transgenic fly strain in which a hemagglutinin (HA) epitope tag sequence is inserted into the endogenous locus of the upd1 gene. Anti-HA antibody staining confirms that the distribution of the epitope-tagged Upd1::HA in various tissues is consistent with upd1 expression patterns revealed by previous studies. This transgenic fly strain will be useful in studying the expression, localization, and association partners of Upd1, and thus will contribute to understanding how activation of the JAK/STAT pathway is regulated. |
