UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of MED16GD4275 under the control of Scer\GAL4bam.T:Hsim\VP16 (in combination with a Dicer-2 transgene to enhance RNAi efficiency) does not result in any testis phenotype.
Adults expressing MED16GD4275 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.
