UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
The expression of wbGD1560 under the control of Scer\GAL4nub.PU (together with Dicer-2, for efficient RNAi) leads to small, folded and blistered wings, as compared to controls.
When wbGD1560 is expressed in the posterior epidermal cells of third instar larvae using Scer\GAL4hh-Gal4 21.36% of Class IV ddaC dendrites are enclosed by the epidermis, rather than attached to the ECM.
Adults expressing wbGD1560 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 extra bristles on the notum in 10-20% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 expression domain.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 results in the absence of 20-30% of the Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237-expressing area of the notum.
Expression of wbGD1560 under the control of Scer\GAL4Bx-MS1096 leads to crinkled and dusky wings.
wbGD1560/Scer\GAL4nub.PU is an enhancer of abnormal size | adult stage phenotype of Scer\GAL4nub.PU, SmoxSDVD.UAS
Dcr-2UAS.cDa, Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237, wbGD1560 has lethal phenotype
wbGD1560/Scer\GAL4nub.PU is an enhancer of wing phenotype of Scer\GAL4nub.PU, SmoxSDVD.UAS
Dcr-2UAS.cDa, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF, Scer\GAL4ey.PH, wbGD1560 has eye phenotype
The co-expression of wbGD1560 (together with Dicer-2, for efficient RNAi) enhances the oversized wing defects induced by the expression of SmoxSDVD.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4nub.PU.
Coexpression of Dcr-2Scer\UAS.cDa with wbGD1560, under the control of Scer\GAL4ey.PH and Scer\GAL4GMR.PF leads to a rough eye and necrotic eye phenotype, while expression of only wbGD1560 does not cause an eye phenotype.
Coexpression of Dcr-2Scer\UAS.cDa and wbGD1560, under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237, leads to lethality while Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237>wbGD1560 flies are viable.
