UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of VGlutKK107498 under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR27G01 in adults significantly reduces 24-hour associative olfactory water-reward memory, compared to controls, with no effect on odor acuity or water preference; a significant reduction in 24-hour memory is also observed when a Gal80[ts] transgene is used to restrict expression to the adult stage.
Expression of VGlutKK107498 under the control of Scer\GAL4VT000765 or Scer\GAL4VT041043 significantly reduces 3-hour aversive olfactory anaesthesia-resistant memory (ARM), compared to controls; this is also the case when a Gal80[ts] transgene is used to restrict expression to the adult stage; ARM is further reduced when Scer\GAL4VT000765 and Scer\GAL4VT041043 are simultaneously used to drive expression of VGlutKK107498.
Expression of VGlutKK107498 under the control of Scer\GAL4Act.PU has no significant effect on green-light avoidance in larvae.
VGlut1KK107498/Scer\GAL4NP1227 is a suppressor of abnormal smell perception phenotype of Ecol\lexAGAD.GH146, TrpA1lexAop.Tag:NLS(SV40-largeT)
Ethyl butyrate induced habituation in flies expressing TrpA1Ecol\lexAop.T:SV40\nls2 under the control of Ecol\lexAGH146.T:Scer\GAL4-GAD is greatly reduced in the presence of a VGlutKK107498 transgene (expressed under the control of Scer\GAL4NP1227).
