UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of a short inverted repeat.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4eya.enh1+E+2 results in a necrotic eye phenotype.
About half of adult males expressing spideyGL00567 RNAi under the control of Scer\GAL4Desat1.PB (using Scer\GAL80ts.αTub84B to limit the expression to adulthood) display 'sticky' phenotype when they adhere strongly to vertical surfaces, unable to remove themselves or be removed even by vigorous shaking or knocking.
