UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of a short inverted repeat.
The expression of DoaHMJ03121 under the control of Scer\GAL4SPARC-MI00329-GAL4 (and Dicer-2, for a more efficient RNAi) in the larval fat body induces defective secretion, including intracellular matrix material, as shown by the retention of both secr.GFP and Vkg.GFP.
Females heterozygous for DoaHMJ03121 and Scer\GAL4mat.αTub67C.T:Hsim\VP16 crossed to DoaHMJ03121 males results in: "few eggs,0% hatching"; egg/embryonic phenotype: "few eggs, abnormal"; maternal effect; oogenesis defect.
