UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of a 500bp inverted repeat.
Expression of CG4586NIG.4586R under the control of Scer\GAL4ppl.PP results in significant increase in the size of large lipid droplets in the fat body of third instar larvae.
Expression of CG4586NIG.4586R under the control of Scer\GAL4sal.BO (in combination with a Dicer-2 transgene to enhance RNAi efficiency) does not result in larval lethality at the L2/L3 transition.
The increased size of fat body lipid droplets characteristic for Trf2G0071 mutant wandering third instar larvae is not significantly altered by expression of CG4586Scer\UAS.T:Zzzz\FLAG under the control of Scer\GAL4ppl.PP.
