UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of ETHRGD697 under the control of any of the following drivers: Scer\GAL4Pburs.PP, Scer\GAL4CCAP.PP, Scer\GAL4Mip.PM or Scer\GAL4Burs.PL increases duration of pupal pre-ecdysis behavior stage (delaying the switch from pre-ecdysis to ecdysis behavior).
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL41407 results in loss of neuroblasts in the larval brain associated with decreased size of the remaining neuroblasts.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL41407 results in a reduction in the average size of neuroblasts together with shorter neuroblast lineages (less daughter cells per neuroblast) in the larval brain compared to controls.
Adults expressing ETHRGD697 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 viable flies or late pupal lethality.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in the absence of 0% or 80-90% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237-expressing area of the notum, depending on the insertion line used.
