UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Adults expressing l(3)neo38GD17123 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu (in the presence of Dcr-2Scer\UAS.cDa to increase the efficiency of RNAi) can show significantly reduced avoidance of noxious temperature (46[o]C) compared to control flies, depending on the particular P{GD17123} insertion line used.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR results in a weak flyer phenotype.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in the absence of 70-80% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237-expressing area of the notum.
