UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Adults expressing CG17564GD9414 under the control of Scer\GAL4sca.PU show a significant decrease in climbing activity, as compared to controls.
Adults expressing CG17564GD9414 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.
Expression of CG17564GD9414 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu (in the presence of Dcr-2Scer\UAS.cDa to increase the efficiency of RNAi) results in viable flies or partial lethality, depending on the particular P{GD9414} insertion line used.
