UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of a short inverted repeat.
Females heterozygous for mei-41HMS02331 and MTD-Gal4 (consists of Scer\GAL4otu.T:Hsim\VP16, Scer\GAL4nos.PG and Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16) crossed to mei-41HMS02331 males results in: 26% hatching; egg/embryonic phenotype: "dorsal closure defects, variable"; maternal effect.
Scer\GAL4nanos.PU/mei-41HMS02331 is an enhancer of decreased cell number | adult stage | female | temperature conditional phenotype of Crei\I-CreIhs.PR
mei-41HMS02331, Scer\GAL4nanos.PU is a non-suppressor of decreased cell number | spermatogenesis | progressive phenotype of Rtel1HMS00770, Scer\GAL4nanos.PU
Scer\GAL4nanos.PU/mei-41HMS02331 is an enhancer of female germline stem cell | adult stage | temperature conditional phenotype of Crei\I-CreIhs.PR
mei-41HMS02331, Scer\GAL4nanos.PU is a non-suppressor of male germline stem cell | adult stage | decreased number phenotype of Rtel1HMS00770, Scer\GAL4nanos.PU
The loss of germline stem cells (GSCs) observed upon heat-shock induced expression of Crei\I-CreIhs.PR (to introduce DNA damage) is further exacerbated by expression of mei-41HMS02331 under the Scer\GAL4nos.PU driver.
