UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of PsnGD4624 using either Scer\GAL4da.G32 or Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in a reduction in adult bristle sense organs.
Adults expressing PsnGD4624 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.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in loss of bristles on the notum in 40-50% or 90-100% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 expression domain, depending on the insertion line used.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in external sensory organs consisting of empty or multiple sockets in 0% or 10-20% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 expression domain of the notum, depending on the insertion line used.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in the absence of 10-20% or 60-70% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237-expressing area of the notum, depending on the insertion line used.
