A 3941 base pair fragment from the flanking non-coding or intronic region of CG32547 is fused upstream of a Drosophila core synthetic promoter (DSCP) that is followed by sequence encoding a GAL4 driver.
Optogenetic activation (using Crei\ChR2UAS.cSa with 470 nm (blue) light) of Scer\GAL4GMR25B07 cells in larvae results in a significant increase in turn-avoid behaviors, compared to controls.
