UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of prd1GD9359 under the control of Scer\GAL4ppk.PU results in severe and highly penetrant ddaC neuron dendrite pruning defects at 16h after puparium formation, as compared to controls.
Adults expressing CG17360GD9359 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.
