UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Adult flies expressing slsGD9680 under the control of Scer\GAL4Hk-UH3 show no gross morphological defects in indirect flight muscles with largely normal sarcomere organization, but some tearing of the sarcomere is occasionally observed.
Expression of slsGD9680 (together with UAS-Dicer2 to enhance RNAi efficiency) under the control of either Scer\GAL4phm.PU or Scer\GAL42-286 is second/third larval stage lethal.
Adults expressing slsGD9680 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu (in the presence of Dcr-2Scer\UAS.cDa to increase the efficiency of RNAi) show significantly reduced avoidance of noxious temperature (46[o]C) compared to control flies.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR results in embryonic lethality.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR results in grossly normal larval body wall muscles.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR results in sarcomeres with discontinuous Z-lines in the larval body wall muscles.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in bristle morphology defects on the notum in 0%, 20-30% or 30-40% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 expression domain, depending on the insertion line used.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in the absence of 20-30%, 70-80%, 80-90% or 100% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237-expressing area of the notum, depending on the insertion line used.
