UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Flies expressing seiGD2196 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 show more rapid paralysis in response to acute heat stress than wild-type controls.
Adults expressing seiGD2196 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.
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 morphologically wild-type 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.
