UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Adults expressing AckGD8506 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.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR results in late pupal lethality.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in the absence of 60-70% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237-expressing area of the notum.
AckGD8506/Scer\GAL4GMR.PU is an enhancer of visible phenotype of hidGMR.PG
AckGD8506, Scer\GAL4GMR.PU, rprGMR.PH has visible phenotype
AckGD8506, Scer\GAL4GMR.PU, rprGMR.PH has lethal | pharate adult stage phenotype
AckGD8506/Scer\GAL4GMR.PU is an enhancer of eye phenotype of hidGMR.PG
AckGD8506, Scer\GAL4GMR.PU, rprGMR.PH has eye phenotype
Expression of AckGD8506 under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PU enhances the reduced eye size caused by WGMR.PG.
rprGMR.PH flies expressing AckGD8506 under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PU fail to eclose. The pharate adults show complete ablation of the eye. The ablated eye area is replaced by a hole in the head cuticle where eye tissue would normally reside and the optic lobe region of the brain is visible, and sometimes protrudes outside of the head.
