UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Adults expressing Fs(2)KetGD9797 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\GAL4Mef2.PR results in early pupal lethality.
Animals expressing Fs(2)KetGD9797 under the control of either Scer\GAL4elav.PLu, Scer\GAL4esg-NP5130 or Scer\GAL4vg.PB die as pupae. The imaginal discs, central and peripheral nervous systems appear normal at the third instar larval stage in these animals.
Animals expressing Fs(2)KetGD9797 under the control of Scer\GAL4ey.PH die as pupae due to the lack of most of the head capsule.
Animals expressing Fs(2)KetGD9797 under the control of Scer\GAL4ptc-559.1 die as pupae due to multiple head defects.
