UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of CG12173GD7515 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu (in combination with a Dicer-2 transgene to enhance RNAi efficiency) results in a significant decrease in virgin female receptivity, as compared to controls.
Adults expressing CG12173GD7515 under the control of the cardioblast-specific Scer\GAL4tin.CΔ4 driver show significantly reduced survival on day 6 after a shift to 29[o]C compared to control flies.
Adults expressing CG12173GD7515 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu (in the presence of Dcr-2Scer\UAS.cDa to increase the efficiency of RNAi) do not show a significant defect in avoidance of noxious temperature (46[o]C) compared to control flies.
Depending on the insertion line used, expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR can result in flightless flies.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR results in grossly normal adult indirect flight muscles.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR results in morphologically wild-type myofibrils in the adult indirect flight muscles.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR results in wild-type sarcomeres in the adult indirect flight muscles.
