UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Presynaptic expression of CG6498GD11940 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 causes synaptic retractions in less than 25% of synapses.
Expression of CG6498GD11940 under the control of Scer\GAL4c306 results in incomplete border cell migration in some stage 10 egg chambers. Most border cells with a migration defect stop midway to the oocyte.
Adults expressing dopGD11940 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.
