UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of TrpA1JF01360 under the control of Scer\GAL4da.PU results in lack of uracil-dependent defecation.
Expression of TrpA1JF01360 under the control of Scer\GAL4TrpA1.C-D results in a significant reduction in uracil-dependent defecation.
Expression of TrpA1JF01360 under the control of Scer\GAL4ninaE.PT (in the presence of Dcr-2Scer\UAS.cDa to enhance RNAi) reduces the preference of larvae for 18[o]C over 23[o]C in a binary choice thermotaxis assay.
