UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of TFAMGD5041 under the control of Scer\GAL4da.PU results in a decrease in mtDNA, as compared to controls, and complete lethality in pupal stages.
Adults expressing TFAMGD5041 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu (in the presence of Dcr-2Scer\UAS.cDa to increase the efficiency of RNAi) show significantly reduced avoidance of noxious temperature (46[o]C) compared to control flies.
Depending on the insertion line used, expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR can result in a weak flyer phenotype or adult/pharate lethality.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 may result in semi-lethality, depending on the insertion line used.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in bristle morphology defects on the notum in 10-20% or 20-30% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 expression domain, depending on the insertion line used.
