UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
No delays in pupariation are detected when fs(1)M3GD6208 is expressed in the prothoracic gland under the control of Scer\GAL4phm.PO.
Adults expressing fs(1)M3GD6208 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.
