UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
In 3h-starved third instar larvae, fat body clones expressing Rab3-GAPGD12118 under the control of Scer\GAL4Act.PU exhibit a perinuclear chain-like network of autophagosomes.
Knockdown of rab3-GAP in border cells, through the expression of rab3-GAPGD12118 under the control of Scer\GAL4c306, induces border cell migration defects.
Adults expressing Rab3-GAPGD12118 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.
