UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Adults expressing COQ7GD8325 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 of COQ7GD8325 under the control of Scer\GAL4da.Switch.PT in the presence of 20μ/ml RU486 results in a prolonged developmental phase compared to controls.
Expression of COQ7GD8325 under the control of Scer\GAL4da.Switch.PT in the presence of 20μ/ml RU486 does not result in a significant change in body weight in male flies.
Expression of COQ7GD8325 under the control of Scer\GAL4da.Switch.PT in the presence of 20μ/ml RU486 has no significant effect on adult male lifespan, but significantly reduces adult female lifespan compared to controls.
Depending on the insertion line used, expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR can result in defects in locomotion or a weak flyer phenotype.
