UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of tslGD6215 under the control of Scer\GAL4phm.PO has no significant effect on developmental rate or body size. No phenotypes are seen when tslGD6215 is expressed ubiquitously under the control of Scer\GAL4Act.PU.
Adults expressing tslGD6215 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.
