UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of shnKK101278 under the control of Scer\GAL4ple.PF leads to an increase in the probability of proboscis extension reflex and (its expression (in combination with tub-Gal80[ts]) leads to an increase in the spontaneous locomotion particularly in proximity to the food when compared to control adults.
Expression of shnKK101278 under the control of Scer\GAL4Bx-MS1096 has no effect on male wing size or patterning.
Expression of shnKK101278 under the control of Scer\GAL4Bx-MS1096 has no effect on female wing size or patterning.
Expression of shnKK101278 in C-I neurons under the control of Scer\GAL4221 results in ddaD neurons that have an increased number of dendritic branches compared to controls.
Expression of shnKK101278 in C-IV neurons under the control of shnKK101278 results in a reduction in total dendritic length in ddaC and v'ada neurons. The total number of dendritic branches is also reduced in ddaC neurons.
