UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
The expression of Scer\GAL4GMR.PU>Reep1GD2168 alone does not produce apparent defects in the retinas.
Adults expressing Reep1GD2168 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.
ReepAGD2168, Scer\GAL4GMR.PU is an enhancer of abnormal neuroanatomy phenotype of Hsap\MAPTUAS.2N4R.cAa, Scer\GAL4GMR.PU
ReepAGD2168, Scer\GAL4GMR.PU is an enhancer of visible phenotype of Hsap\MAPTUAS.2N4R.cAa, Scer\GAL4GMR.PU
ReepAGD2168, Scer\GAL4GMR.PU is an enhancer of eye phenotype of Hsap\MAPTUAS.2N4R.cAa, Scer\GAL4GMR.PU
Expression of Scer\GAL4GMR.PU>Reep1GD2168 strongly enhances the neurodegeneration induced by Hsap\MAPTScer\UAS.2N4R.cAa expression. As a result of the enhanced neurotoxic effects, the surface area of the eye is further reduced and becomes more disorganised.
