Flies expressing Dpy-30L1Scer\UAS.cVa under the control of Scer\GAL4Act are more sensitive to cadmium or zinc in the food medium compared to controls, while sensitivity to copper is only marginally affected.
Flies expressing Dpy-30L1Scer\UAS.cVa under the control of Scer\GAL4Act show the same sensitivity to excess iron in the food medium as wild-type controls.
Dpy-30L1UAS.cVa, Scer\GAL4Act.PU has chemical sensitive phenotype, suppressible by MTF-1Tub.PY
The increased sensitivity of flies expressing Dpy-30L1Scer\UAS.cVa under the control of Scer\GAL4Act to cadmium or zinc in the food medium is rescued by co-expression of MTF-1Tub.PY.
