Depositor Comments

This construct contains the amino terminus of xfz8, which includes the signal sequence, cysteine-rich domain (CRD) and the linker region. It terminates just before the first transmembrane region. This plasmid does not contain a myc tag and is potent at causing enlarged cement gland and shortened axes. This construct was generated by removing a ClaI-XhoI fragment from Nxfz8/CS2MT. For sense transcripts, cut with NotI.
