Depositor Comments

Note that this plasmid has a few differences from the Entrez Genbank reference sequence for Drosophila 5-HT1A. It was cloned from transgenic fly that has UAS-d5-HT1A (Bloomington #27630) and can be considered a functional variant.

Plasmid can be directly used for expression in HEK cells. Insert cloned into the NotI and XhoI sites. Has a vertebrate Kozak sequence (GCCACC) immediately upstream of the ATG.
