Abstrakt: | The highly conserved Notch signaling pathway brings about the transcriptional activation of target genes via either instructive or permissive mechanisms that depend on the identity of the specific target gene. As additional components of the Notch signaling pathway are identified, assessing whether each of these components are utilized exclusively by one of these mechanisms (and if so, which), or by both, becomes increasingly important. Using RNA interference-mediated knockdowns of the Notch component to be tested, reporters for two Notch-activated pericardial genes in Drosophila melanogaster, immunohistochemistry, and fluorescence microscopy, we describe a method to determine the type of signaling mechanism-instructive, permissive, or both-to which a particular Notch pathway component contributes.
