Overview

A dimer of GAL80 binds to the C-terminal ends of the GAL4 dimer so that, while it can still bind to a UAS sequence, it can no longer activate transcription. This interaction of GAL4 and GAL80 can be taken advantage of to refine the expression pattern of GAL4-dependent transgenes.
We use the specific promoter pleP (TH Promoter) to control the fixed expression of GAL80ts, because of the specificity of pleP, GAL80ts express in tissue which express dopamine specifically. At 25℃, GAL4 and GAL80ts express, GAL80tsp conbine with GAL4p then stop it to bind to UAS, so the TH do not express.At 29℃, GAL80ts is inactivated, which cannot combine with GAL4p, so GAL4p binds to UAS and starts the expression of TH, leading to the high expression of dopamine.

Design Note

We cloned synthetic TH into pUAST with restriction endonuclease digestion and T4 ligase igation. Then we construct pSB1C3-UAS-TH and pUAST-UAS-TH. The pSB1C3-UAS-TH is for submission. The pUAST-UAS-TH also with the other two plasmids: pUAST-ple-GAL4 (BBa_K2374005)and pUAST-ple-GAL80ts (BBa_K2374006) are used to do micro-injection into the D.melanogaster. We must combine the three pathways to determine if the system work well. After hybridization screening, we got stable modified fruit fly strains. Finally, we did RT-PCR, qPCR and behavioral experiments to test our system.
The result of our testing on D.melanogaster is displayed below.

We cloned UAS-TH into shipping backbone pSB1C3 with In-Fusion. Here shows the restriction endonuclease digestion image of pSB1C3-UAS-TH.
