UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of Mst77FGD10945 under the control of Scer\GAL4c135 results in defects in spermatogenesis, including loss of sperm clustering, malformed nuclei, and absence of mature sperm.
Adults expressing Mst77FGD10945 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.
