UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Adults expressing CG42260GD8671 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu (in the presence of Dcr-2Scer\UAS.cDa to increase the efficiency of RNAi) do not show a significant defect in avoidance of noxious temperature (46[o]C) compared to control flies.
Third instar larvae expressing CG42260GD8671 under the control of either Scer\GAL4Gyc-89Da.1.9 or Scer\GAL4Gyc-89Db.3.4 show a normal hypoxia escape response; mutant larvae which have been allowed to burrow into the food and commence feeding take the same time as control larvae to leave the food when exposed to low oxygen concentrations.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 may result in semi-lethality, depending on the insertion line used.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in bristle morphology defects on the notum in 0% or 30-40% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 expression domain, depending on the insertion line used.
