UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of smashGD10283 under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PS (but not Scer\GAL4pnr.PU, Scer\GAL4dpp.PU or Scer\GAL4Bx-MS1096) leads to a rough eye phenotype (more severe in males than in females) when compared to control adults.
Adults expressing CG43427GD10283 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.
