UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Third instar larvae expressing gbGD315 under the control of Scer\GAL4nSyb.PU display crawling ability defects, namely a significant increase in head bending during crawling, as compared to controls.
Adults expressing GLSGD1314 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.
