UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
The expression of myoGD9569 under the control of Scer\GAL4how-24B leads to a significant increase in average larval weight, as compared to controls.
Expression of myoGD9569 under the control of Scer\GAL4Gli-rL82 has no significant effect on bouton number at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) in third instar larvae.
Adults expressing myoGD9569 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.
