Binary expression systems are flexible and versatile genetic tools in Drosophila. The Q-system is a recently developed repressible binary expression system that offers new possibilities for transgene expression and genetic manipulations. In this review chapter, we focus on current state-of-the-art Q-system tools and reagents. We also discuss in vivo applications of the Q-system, together with GAL4/UAS and LexA/LexAop systems, for simultaneous expression of multiple effectors, intersectional labeling, and clonal analysis.
二元表达系统是果蝇中灵活且通用的遗传工具。Q系统是最近开发的一种可抑制的二元表达系统,为转基因表达和基因操作提供了新的可能性。在这篇综述章节中,我们重点关注当前最先进的Q系统工具和试剂。我们还讨论了Q系统与GAL4/UAS和LexA/LexAop系统在体内的应用,用于同时表达多种效应物、交叉标记和克隆分析。
