UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
The expression of LkrJF01956 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 abolishes the increased food consumption induced by dietary amino acids normally observed in controls.
Expression of LkrJF01956 under the control of Scer\GAL4Ilp2.PR in adults significantly increases starvation survival time, compared to controls, when flies are raised on high sugar/high protein diets, but not on standard or low sugar/high protein diet.
Expression of LkrJF01956 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 in adults results in a significant reduction in the strength of circadian locomotor rhythms, compared to controls.
Expression of LkrJF01956 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU in adult females does not affect locomotor activity in fed conditions, compared to controls; like controls, locomotor activity is significantly increased under starvation conditions.
