UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
The expression of Dh44-R1JF03208 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 abolishes the increased food consumption induced by dietary amino acids normally observed in controls.
Expression of Dh44-R1JF03208 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 or Scer\GAL4GMR21A07, in combination with a Dicer-2 transgene to enhance RNAi efficiency, in adults significantly reduces the strength of circadian locomotor rhythms under constant darkness, compared to controls; expression under the control of Scer\GAL4S3.Hug significantly reduces the strength of circadian locomotor rhythms in a Dh44-R1DsRed/+ background, but not a +/+ background.
Expression of Dh44-R1JF03208 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU in adult females significantly decreases locomotor activity in fed conditions, compared to controls; like controls, locomotor activity is significantly increased under starvation conditions.
Expression of Dh44-R1JF03208 under the control of Scer\GAL4nSyb.PU in females results in a significant decrease in the latency to sperm ejection after copulation and a significant reduction in sperm storage in the seminal receptacles.
