Expression of Gr64aScer\UAS.cDa in ab1C neurons, under the control of Scer\GAL4Gr21a.9.323 or Scer\GAL4Gr63a.PF, is sufficient to confer a response to sucrose, maltose, maltotriose, fructose and glycerol.
Gr64aUAS.cDa/Scer\GAL4Gr5a.8.5 partially rescues Gr64a1/Df(3L)Gr64a2
The defects in the electrophysiological response to various sugars which is seen in the L-type labellar sensilla of Gr64a1/Df(3L)Gr64a2 flies are rescued by expression of Gr64aScer\UAS.cDa under the control of Scer\GAL4Gr5a.8.5.
Expression of Gr64aScer\UAS.cDa under the control of Scer\GAL4Gr5a.8.5 increases the mean proboscis extension response to all sugars whose responses are reduced in Gr64a1 flies.
Expression of Gr64aScer\UAS.cDa under the control of Scer\GAL4Gr5a.8.5 partially rescues the reduced proboscis extension responses to maltotriose and sucrose which are seen in a walking proboscis extension assay in Gr64a1/Df(3L)Gr64a2 flies.
