UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of C-Venus that is tagged with Tag:PH(step).
Flies co-expressing stepPH.Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-VC and stepPH.Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-VN under the control of Scer\GAL4n-syb.PS show temperature-sensitive paralysis, with all flies being paralysed within 3 minutes at 38[o]C. The flies recover slowly when placed back at room temperature.
The amplitude of the excitatory junctional current at the neuromuscular junction is significantly reduced compared to wild type in larvae co-expressing stepPH.Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-VC and stepPH.Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-VN under the control of Scer\GAL4n-syb.PS.
Avic\GFPC-Venus.UAS.Tag:PH(step), Avic\GFPN-Venus.UAS.Tag:PH(step), Scer\GAL4nSyb.PS has paralytic | heat sensitive phenotype, suppressible | drug conditional by Hsap\MTORFRB.UAS.Tag:PM(Lyn11)/Hsap\FKBP1AFKBP.UAS, Scer\GAL4nSyb.PS
The temperature-sensitive paralysis caused by co-expression of stepPH.Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-VC and stepPH.Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-VN under the control of Scer\GAL4n-syb.PS is completely suppressed if the flies are also co-expressing both Hsap\MTORFRB.Scer\UAS.T:Uuuu\Lyn11 and Hsap\FKBP1AFKBP.Scer\UAS and are fed rapamycin.
The reduced amplitude of the excitatory junctional current at the neuromuscular junction which is seen in larvae co-expressing stepPH.Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-VC and stepPH.Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-VN under the control of Scer\GAL4n-syb.PS is completely suppressed if the flies are also co-expressing both Hsap\MTORFRB.Scer\UAS.T:Uuuu\Lyn11 and Hsap\FKBP1AFKBP.Scer\UAS and are fed rapamycin.
