UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression via Scer\GAL4bam.T:Hsim\VP16 but not via Scer\GAL4tj.PU results in over-proliferating germ cells in the testis.
Adults expressing tutGD10674 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.
