UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of gluGD4454 results in: no wings phenotype and reduced halteres with the Scer\GAL4nub.PK driver and pupal lethality with any of the following: Scer\GAL4Act5C.PI, Scer\GAL4ey.PH or Scer\GAL4en.PU. Expression controlled by Scer\GAL4GMR.PF has no overt adult phenotype.
Adults expressing gluGD4454 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 late pupal lethality.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in the absence of 50-60% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237-expressing area of the notum.
