The midguts of 10-14 day old rk1/rk1 mutants display intestinal stem cell hyperproliferation, increased cellularity and abnormal epithelial multilayering, and an apparent increase in symmetric intestinal stem cell division; rk1/rk1 mutants also display wing inflation defects, as compared with wild type.
Clones of rk1/rk1 cells within the intestinal epithelium show no significant difference in cell number when compared with control clones.
Only 60.4% of rk1/Df(2L)BSC252 animals eclose.
73.3% of legs are normal in homozygous flies, 21.3% have moderately kinked tarsi and only 5.3% have severely kinked legs.
100% of rk1/Df(2L)BSC252 flies have several tarsal deformities.
In rk1 homozygous adult wing blade cells persist for much longer after eclosion than in wild-type.
strong allele Legs, especially hind ones, flattened and bent. Femora and tibiae bowed in middle; first two tarsal joints shortened, bent, and flattened; last three tarsal joints almost a unit, shortened, and flattened; tarsal claws disarranged. Wings not expanded, sometimes partially extended, sometimes drooping. Postscutellar bristles crossed. Body small. Viability about 90% wild type. RK2.

rk1 is rescued by rkUAS.cSa/Scer\GAL4rk.pan
rk1 is partially rescued by rkUAS.cSa/Scer\GAL4how-24B
Expression of rkScer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4rk.pan rescues the wing inflation defect and adult midgut phenotypes of rk1/rk1 mutants.
Expression of rkScer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4how-24B restores intestinal stem cell quiescence but fails to rescue the developmental defects of rk1/rk1 mutants.
Edmondson, Aug. 1948.
There was probably a second mutation, floating in the original "rk[1]" stock, that affects apoptosis; experiments carried out with rk[1] homozygotes obtained in 2008 from the Bloomington Stock Center indicate that apoptosis during wing maturation is not affected in the homozygotes, whereas experiments carried out in 2004 with rk[1] homozygotes (which used a rk[1] stock obtained in 2004 from the Bloomington Stock Center) occasionally resulted in wings with a uniform epithelial later with non-apoptotic nuclei 25 hours post eclosion.
