From: cis-regulatory analysis of the Drosophila pdm locus reveals a diversity of neural enhancers

Fig. 9

Analysis of enhancer-reporter transgenes in the adult brain identifies both neural and tracheal enhancers. a–f Shown are 6 of the 46 pdm locus enhancers that direct mCD8-GFP expression (green) using the GAL4/UAS system in adult brains (see Additional file 4: Table S1 for additional adult enhancers). a nub-15 regulates expression in putative median neurosecretory cells, ventrolateral protocerebrum, ellipsoid body, lateral triangle, and cell body. b nub-29 directs expression in the adult tracheal branches. c nub-54 regulates expression in noduli and median neurosecretory cells. d pdm2-24 regulates expression in a subset of cells in the subesophageal ganglion. e pdm2-31a directs expression in the ellipsoid body, cell body, medulla, and ventromedial protocerebrum. f pdm2-36 activates expression in lobula, optic glomerulus, medulla, subesophageal ganglion, ellipsoid body, cell body, lateral triangle, and median neurosecretory cells. Note: the above expression pattern descriptions are based on previous work that defines adult neuroanatomy
