A genomic fragment carrying the Hr96 gene.
Animals bearing two copies of Hr96+tHa, in addition to the endogenous Hr96 locus, die at a slower rate than wild type controls when transferred to starvation media.
Animals bearing two copies of Hr96+tHa, in addition to the endogenous Hr96 locus, have wild type levels of glycogen under both normal and starved feeding conditions compared to controls.
Animals bearing two copies of Hr96+tHa, in addition to the endogenous Hr96 locus, have elevated triacylglycerol (TAG) levels in both fed and starved conditions relative to controls.
Fat body cells of animals bearing two copies of Hr96+tHa, in addition to the endogenous Hr96 locus, are of wild type size but contain enlarged lipid droplets.
Compared to controls, increased levels of neutral lipids are detected in the midgut epithelium of animals bearing two copies of Hr96+tHa, in addition to the endogenous Hr96 locus.
