UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
The expression of htsGD14187 under the control of Scer\GAL4221, in combination with Dicer-2 for efficient RNAi, results in third instar larval class I abdominal dorsal multidendritic ddaD and ddaE neurons exhibiting dendrite branch misrouting, as compared to controls; expression under the control of Scer\GAL4ppk.PG, in combination with Dicer-2 for efficient RNAi, results in third instar larval class IV abdominal dorsal multidendritic ddaC neurons exhibiting abnormal dendritic terminals, as compared to controls.
Scer\GAL4Appl.G1a-mediated expression of htsGD14187 results in locomotion deficits in the fast phototaxis assay.
Adults expressing htsGD14187 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.
Depending on the insertion line used, expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR can result in flightless flies or late pupal lethality.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR results in grossly normal adult indirect flight muscles.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR results in trapezoid myofibrils in the adult indirect flight muscles.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR results in sarcomeres with broadened Z-lines in the adult indirect flight muscles.
