UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
The lifespan of flies expressing Scer\GAL4elav-C155>Sod3GD4801 is similar to that of wild-type.
Flies expressing Sod3GD4801 under the control of Scer\GAL4da.G32 show reduced resistance to oxidative stress (measured by resistance to paraquat) and longevity compared to wild type.
Adults expressing Sod3GD4801 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 under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in a colour difference between the central Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 expression domain of the notum and the surrounding lateral region in 0% or 90-100% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 expression domain, depending on the insertion line used.
Co-expression of Sod3GD4801 using Scer\GAL4elav-C155 ameliorates the Hsap\APParctic.Aβ42.Scer\UAS.att phenotypes: the flies show improved climbing and survival.
