Detailed Description

After single cell wounding (by laser ablation), Cdc424/Cdc426 embryos show a wider actin ring than wild type and less orientated cortical actin flow toward the wound. Wound expansion and actin halo formation are not significantly affected.

Cdc424/Cdc426 embryos show defects in epithelial wound repair. The expansion and coalescence phases are not significantly delayed and by contraction, the wounds have become rounded, consistent with the presence of a functional actomyosin cable. There is a severe reduction of filopodia and lamellipodia protrusions in the leading edge cells throughout the wound repair process. The contraction phase is doubled in length compared to wild type. The wound cannot be sealed and a small hole remains at the end of the process.

Hemocytes in embryos derived from Cdc423/Cdc426 mothers show normal developmental dispersal and normal recruitment to sites of laser-induced tissue damage. However, during the migratory phase and after arrival at the wound site, the mutant hemocytes often possess several leading edges suggesting that they cannot maintain a persistent polarity.

The failure of hemocytes to maintain polarity in embryos derived from Cdc423/Cdc426 mothers leads the hemocytes to adopt a haphazard migratory route. This defect is countered by the mutant hemocytes migrating at approximately twice the normal speed so that they reach the wound as rapidly as in wild type embryos.

Cdc423/Cdc426 or Cdc424/Cdc426 combinations produce over 70% embryonic lethality, even when outcrossed to wild-type males. Embryos produced by Cdc423/Cdc426 mothers display disruptions in epidermal development, including incomplete germband retraction, ventral holes in the epidermis, ventral holes in cuticle produced by epidermal cells, and anterior open phenotypes. Ventral holes range in size from isolated disruptions to openings in the entire ventral surface of the embryo. Patterns of neuronal differentiation are largely normal, even in areas where the integrity of the overlying epidermis is disrupted. In certain embryos defects in the central nervous system, such as incomplete formation and midline fusion of the longitudinal connectives are observed. However, in all embryos the axons of the peripheral nervous system appear to extend properly. In Cdc424/Cdc426 germ-line clones, the specialised actin filaments that project outward from the nurse cell ring canals appear to be enhanced.

Statement
Reference

The dendritogenesis defects in the embryonic aCC motoneurons characteristic for embryos expressing either Dscam1HMS01859 or dockJF02810 RNAi under the control of Scer\GAL4eve.RN2 are partially suppressed by co-expression of PakScer\UAS.T:Myr-Src64B : the reduced dendritic number is fully restored but the region containing primary dendritic processes is expanded compared to controls. This rescue effect is however blocked in the presence of either Cdc426 or Cdc424 (in hemizygous state).
