UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of a short inverted repeat.
Expression of tkvHMS02185 under the control of Scer\GAL4en-e16E leads to increased cell death in third instar larval wing discs.
Females heterozygous for tkvHMS02185 and Scer\GAL4mat.αTub67C.T:Hsim\VP16 crossed to tkvHMS02185 males results in: 0% hatching; egg/embryonic phenotype: "no development, all brown, weak ventralized"; maternal effect.
