Expression of Akap\UbxScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4arm.PS in embryos does not result in the transformation of segment T3 into A1.
Overexpression of Akap\UbxScer\UAS.cGa driven by Scer\GAL4dpp.blk1 causes transformation of the antenna towards a thoracic leg. Overexpression of Akap\UbxScer\UAS.cGa driven by Scer\GAL4Bx-MS1096 causes transformation of the wing towards a haltere. This transformation is more severe in males than in females. The phenotype is stronger on the dorsal surface of the wing. Overexpression of Akap\UbxScer\UAS.cGa in the ectoderm, driven by Scer\GAL4arm.PS, has no effect on thoracic segment identity in the cuticle.
