The GMR26B12 enhancer fragment followed by the Drosophila synthetic core promoter (DSCP) is fused upstream of the GAL4(DBD)::Zip- hemidriver (component of the 'Split GAL4' system, contains the GAL4 DNA-binding domain).

Thermogenetic activation (using TrpA1Scer\UAS.(B).cKa at 30-31[o]C) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R26B12 and Hsap\RELAAD.R24C08 results in a significant increase of antennal grooming behavior compared to control flies; there is a further significant increase in antennal grooming behavior following antennal amputation.
Thermogenetic activation (using TrpA1Scer\UAS.(B).cKa at 30-31[o]C) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R26B12 and Hsap\RELAAD.R26A02 results in a significant increase of antennal grooming behavior compared to control flies; there is a small but significant decrease in antennal grooming behavior following antennal amputation.
Optogenetic activation (using Cnoc\ChR1Cs.IVS.20xUAS.Venus with red light activation) of neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R26B12 and Hsap\RELAAD.R24C08 induces antennal grooming, which persists for tens of seconds beyond red light cessation.

Inhibition of synaptic release (using Ctet\TeTxLCTNT.Scer\UAS) in neurons targeted by the split-GAL4 pair of Scer\GAL4DBD.R26B12 and Hsap\RELAAD.R24C08 or Scer\GAL4DBD.R26B12 and Hsap\RELAAD.R26A02 significantly partially suppresses the increase in antennal grooming seen in flies with thermogenetic activation (using TrpA113xlexAop.JFRC26 at 30-31[o]C) of Ecol\lexAGMR27H08 neurons.
