The R14C08 enhancer fragment is fused upstream of the Drosophila synthetic core promoter (DSCP) followed by the p65(AD)::Zip+ hemidriver (component of a 'split driver' system, contains the p65 activation domain). A Hsp70 transcriptional terminator is present.

Inhibition (using Hsap\KCNJ2UAS.EGFP) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R15B01 and Hsap\RELAAD.R14C08, in combination with a Gal80[ts] transgene to restrict expression to the adult stage, does not affect food intake or climbing rate, compared to controls.
Thermogenetic activation (using TrpA1UAS.(B).cKa at 30[o]C) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R15B01 and Hsap\RELAAD.R14C08 in adults significantly increases food intake, but does not affect climbing rate, compared to controls.
Blocking protein synthesis (using Rcom\RA[cs2.UAS] at 30[o]C) for the full 24 h between spaced training and testing in neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R15B01 and Hsap\RELAAD.R14C08, significantly impairs aversive olfactory long term memory in adults, compared to controls.
Acute inhibition of endocytosis (using shi1.UAS at 32[o]C) in neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R15B01 and Hsap\RELAAD.R14C08 during testing, 24 h after spaced, but not massed, training significantly impairs aversive olfactory long term memory in adults, compared to controls.
Inhibition of synaptic release (using shits.UAS.cUa at 32[o]C) in neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R15B01 and Hsap\RELAAD.R14C08 significantly reduces carbon dioxide avoidance in starved or fed adults, compared to controls, but the effect is significantly smaller in fed flies.
Optogenetic activation (using Cnoc\ChR1Cs.IVS.20xUAS.Venus with 617 nm (red) light) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R15B01 and Hsap\RELAAD.R14C08 in adults results in a significant avoidance of the illuminated area, no avoidance is observed in controls.
Thermogenetic activation (using TrpA1UAS.(B).cKa at 28.5[o]C) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R15B01 and Hsap\RELAAD.R14C08 in adult males significantly reduces the amount of sleep, compared to controls; activation does not significantly affect locomotor activity of awake adult males, compared to controls; activation after sleep deprivation in adult males significantly reduces the amount of extra rebound sleep, compared to controls.
Inhibition (using shits1.IVS.p10.20xUAS at 31.5[o]C) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R15B01 and Hsap\RELAAD.R14C08 in adult males does not significantly affect the amount of sleep, compared to controls; inhibition does not significantly affect locomotor activity of awake adult males, compared to controls.
Optogenetic activation (using Cnoc\ChR1::Csub\ChRCsChrimson.IVS.20xUAS.Venus with 617 nm (red) light) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R15B01 and Hsap\RELAAD.R14C08 in adult females in an area of an arena significantly increases avoidance of that area, compared to controls; simultaneous activation of these cells and neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R53C10 and Hsap\RELAAD.R30E08 also increases avoidance, to a greater extent than either subset alone; there is no effect on angular speed or walking speed, compared to baseline, similar to controls, in either of these combinations.
Inhibition (using shits1.IVS.p10.20xUAS, but not shi1.UAS, at 32[o]C) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R15B01 and Hsap\RELAAD.R14C08 in adults during training, consolidation and testing substantially reduces associative aversive 2 h olfactory memory, compared to controls; inhibition (using shits1.IVS.p10.20xUAS or shi1.UAS, at 32[o]C) substantially reduces attractive 2 h associative olfactory memory, compared to controls, with no effect on naive sugar attraction; inhibition (using shits1.IVS.p10.20xUAS at 31-33[o]C) significantly reduces appetitive, but not aversive, 1 min associative visual memory, compared to controls, with no effect on sugar attraction; this inhibition during testing alone does not significantly reduce aversive 24 h associative olfactory memory, compared to controls; inhibition only during training and testing significantly reduces 24 h appetitive, but not 30 min aversive, associative olfactory memory towards ethanol, compared to controls.
Thermogenetic activation (using TrpA1UAS.(B).cKa or TrpA120xUAS.JFRC124 at 28.5[o]C) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R15B01 and Hsap\RELAAD.R14C08 in adults significantly reduces sleep, compared to controls, with no effect on social or locomotor behaviors.
