The R75H08 enhancer fragment is fused upstream of the Drosophila synthetic core promoter (DSCP) followed by the GAL4(DBD)::Zip- hemidriver (component of the 'Split GAL4' system, contains the GAL4 DNA-binding domain). A Hsp70 transcriptional terminator is present.

Silencing of L2 lamina output neurons, using Hsap\RELAAD.R82F12.T:Zzzz\Zip+, Scer\GAL4DBD.R75H08.T:Zzzz\Zip- and Hsap\KCNJ2Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP, significantly affects fly responses to many different visual behavioural conditions.
