UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
The only 'high intensity fighting' (HIF) behaviour shown in male-male aggression assays by flies expressing 5-HT1AJF01852 via Scer\GAL4Ilp2.PR, whereas controls also shown wing threats and lunging. Unlike controls, feeding the mutant flies the 5-HT agonist 8-OH-DPAT does not change their HIF aggression pattern.
Male flies expressing 5-HT1AJF01852 via Scer\GAL4Ilp2.PR that are fed the 5-HT agonist 8-OH-DPAT show a similar decrease in courtship singing behaviour as controls.
Male flies expressing 5-HT1AJF01852 via Scer\GAL4Ilp2.PR show (i) a substantial decrease in abdomen curling latency; (ii) a significantly higher courtship index; and (iii) an increase in the tendency to attempt copulation in male-female courtship assays.
Male flies expressing 5-HT1AJF01852 via Scer\GAL4Ilp2.PR show similar locomotor activity to controls.
Male flies expressing 5-HT1AJF01852 via Scer\GAL4Ilp2.PR show similar sleep/wake patterns to controls.
Male flies expressing 5-HT1AJF01852 via Scer\GAL4Ilp2.PR show normal circadian activity rhythm.
