UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
eye, with Scer\GAL4GMR.PU
Expressing Ube3aGD450 under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PU leads to a subtle rough eye phenotype.
Expression of Ube3aGD450 driven by Scer\GAL4elav.PU or Scer\GAL4RapGAP1-OK6 (but not Scer\GAL4C57) leads to a significant increase in total boutons (and satellite boutons) at the neuromuscular junction, compared to wild type third instar larvae.
Adults expressing Ube3aGD450 under the control of either Scer\GAL4elav.PU, Scer\GAL4Tab2-201Y or Scer\GAL4ey-OK107 show learning defects (significantly reduced performance in a aversive phototaxis suppression assay compared to controls).
Adults expressing Ube3aGD450 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 of AsGD450 in ddaC neurons under the control of Scer\GAL4477 in a AsΔ15-8 heterozygous background results in fewer terminal dendritic branches.
Expression of AsGD450 in ddaE and ddaF neurons under the control of Scer\GAL4221 decreases the number of dendritic branches.
