UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Adults expressing CG15168GD16328 under the control of the cardioblast-specific Scer\GAL4tin.CΔ4 driver can show significantly reduced survival on day 6 after a shift to 29[o]C compared to control flies, depending on the particular P{GD16328} insertion line used.
Adults expressing CG15168GD16328 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu (in the presence of Dcr-2Scer\UAS.cDa to increase the efficiency of RNAi) do not show a significant defect in avoidance of noxious temperature (46[o]C) compared to control flies.
Depending on the insertion line used, expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR can result in adult/pharate lethality or late pupal lethality.
