Flies expressing Gγ1dsRNA.Scer\UAS, under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155, show reduced nerve responses to 100mM sucrose. The L1 and L2 cells of these flies show normal responses to sodium chloride. Depending on the Gγ1dsRNA.Scer\UAS insertion line used, some flies show reduced responses to water, but this may be due to genetic background.
Transfected into flies to study the phenotypic consequences of dsRNA interference (RNAi) of the Gγ1 gene.
