UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Adults expressing shiGD1529 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.
Depending on the insertion line used, expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR can result in early larval lethality or early pupal lethality.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in lethality (either before or at the pupal stage), depending on the insertion line used.
