UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of MED31KK108845 under the control of Scer\GAL4bam.T:Hsim\VP16 (in combination with a Dicer-2 transgene to enhance RNAi efficiency) results in partial meiotic arrest in spermatocytes.
Expression via Scer\GAL4wor.PA and Scer\GAL80ase.PN prolongs the lifetime and prevents shrinkage of pupal neuroblasts (NBs) without having any obvious effects on larval NBs.
