UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of HugGD12474 under the control of Scer\GAL4S3.Hug, in combination with a Dicer-2 transgene to enhance RNAi efficiency, in adults significantly reduces the strength of circadian locomotor rhythms under constant darkness, compared to controls.
Expression of HugGD12474 under the control of Scer\GAL4nSyb.PU (in combination with UAS-Dicer2 to increase RNAi efficiency) does not result in a significant change in the latency to sperm ejection in females after the end of copulation.
Adults expressing HugGD12474 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.
