UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Adults expressing CG8257GD13862 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 a weak flyer phenotype or late pupal lethality.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in bristle morphology defects on the notum in 60-70% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 expression domain.
