UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
axon | larval stage, with Scer\GAL4ppk.PU
Expression of Klp59CGD16138 under the control of Scer\GAL4ppk.PU (in combination with a Dicer-2 transgene to enhance RNAi efficiency) does not lead to any significant defects in dendrite clearance after injury, but does lead to defective axon clearance 12 h after injury, and defective dendrite pruning 18 h after the onset of pupariation, as compared to controls.
Adults expressing Klp59CGD16138 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.
