Expression of Strump^GD7555 under the control of Scer\GAL4^{VP16.mat.αTub67C} leads to premature ooplasmic streaming in stage 7 oocytes, disorganized actin at the oocyte cortex and ring canals surrounded by diffuse actin structures in stage 7-9 egg chambers when compared to controls.

Adults expressing Strumpellin^GD7555 under the control of Scer\GAL4^elav.PLu (in the presence of Dcr-2^Scer\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 of Strumpellin^GD7555 under the control of Scer\GAL4^elav.PLu (in the presence of Dcr-2^Scer\UAS.cDa to increase the efficiency of RNAi) results in viable flies or partial lethality, depending on the particular P{GD7555} insertion line used.

Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4^Mef2.PR results in late pupal lethality.

Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4^pnr-MD237 results in semi-lethality at the pupal stage or at eclosion, depending on the insertion line used.

Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4^pnr-MD237 results in the absence of 60-70% or 80-90% of the Scer\GAL4^pnr-MD237-expressing area of the notum, depending on the insertion line used.
