Expression of Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs in motor neurons under the control of Scer\GAL4D42 decreases synapse number about two-fold.

Expression of Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs (either alone or under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.2sev) has little or no effect on free-running circadian period.

Animals carrying Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs show an approximately 40% increase in bouton number at the neuromuscular junction.

Neurons expressing Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs typically display prolonged action potential waveforms and abnormal spontaneous activity. The spike duration (the width of the at the inflection point during an action potential take-off in a spike train) is substantially prolonged in Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs neurons. During sustained step current injection, all-or-none spikes in the tonic and adaptive categories in Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs neurons exhibit a progressive decrease in spike size (along with an increase in spike duration

over the period of stimulation), in contrast to the well-maintained spike shape in wild-type cells. A subpopulation of Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs neurons fire highly irregular spike pattern in response to current injection. Long-lasting spontaneous bursting activity with sporadic occurrence and varying frequency is observed in 25-30% of Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs neurons compared with only 5% in wild-type cells, although the resting membrane potentials within spontaneous spike trains are also prolonged.

When Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs neurons are simulated by step current injections, the firing pattern, in particular the number of spikes in each spike train, varied to a much greater extent than that in wild-type cells.

Males do not show a block in memory, even in the apparent absence of learning, in courtship behaviour assays.

Homozygotes fail to court females. Physiological studies reveal supernumerary synaptic discharges.

Individuals exhibit clear free-running locomotor activity rhythms.

Expression of P{CamKII-IAla.hs} with or without heat shock causes an impaired associative conditioning behavioural paradigm. Altered short term plasticity in synaptic transmission along with abnormal nerve terminal sprouting and directionality of outgrowth. Excitatory junctional currents (EJCs) are greater than normal.

Transformed flies fail to learn normally in two behavioural plasticity paradigms: acoustic priming (a nonassociative measure of sensitization) and courtship conditioning (a measure of associative learning).

Co-expression of Pi3K92EScer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC,T:Hsap\CAAX in motor neurons with Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs, both under the control of Scer\GAL4D42, suppresses the Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs-dependent decrease in synapse number. Synapse number is significantly increased in these double mutants and is indistinguishable from synapse number in larvae expressing Pi3K92EScer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC,T:Hsap\CAAX alone.

Flies expressing Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs under the control of Scer\GAL4Oamb.4.4 in a Oambunspecified heterozygous background show significantly reduced ovulation levels compared to controls. Reduced ovulation levels are also seen when Scer\GAL80ts.αTub84B is used to limit expression to 3 days prior to mating.

Flies expressing both Mmmm\PVScer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC and Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs under the control of Scer\GAL4P2.4.Pdf exhibit period lengthening that is significantly different from controls.

Animals carrying Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs which are also mutant for mysb9 show an approximately 20% increase in bouton number at the neuromuscular junction. Animals carrying Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs which are also mutant for mysts1 show an approximately 16% increase in bouton number at the neuromuscular junction.

eag1/Rat\CamKII-IAla.hs individuals also fail to court.
