The R37E10 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.

Inhibition (using shi1.UAS at 32[o]C) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R37E10 and Hsap\RELAAD.R58E02 in adults during, or immediately after, training, but not during, or immediately before, testing, significantly impairs long-term appetitive olfactory memory, compared to controls; inhibition does not affect short-term memory.
Thermogenetic activation (using TrpA1UAS.(B).cKa at 30[o]C) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R37E10 and Hsap\RELAAD.R58E02 in adults, in combination with a paired odor, results in a significant increase in long-term associative attractive olfactory memory, compared to controls.
Inhibition (using shits1.IVS.p10.20xUAS at 33[o]C) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R37E10 and Hsap\RELAAD.R58E02 in adults during training significantly reduces long-term, but not short-term, associative appetitive (sugar) olfactory memory, compared to controls.
