Description

Two deletions; 24bp from nucleotides 508 to 531, and 356bp from nucleotides 656 to 1011. The second deletion results in a frame shift, creating a stop codon 74bp downstream of the mutation. The predicted protein is truncated prior to the S1 segment.

Deletion leading to a frameshift, causing effectively a null mutation.

Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Loss of Shab in Shab3 mutants removes nearly all of the delayed rectifier K[+] current present in the neurons, while mEPSPs remain stabilised after curare treatment.

Electrical current recordings from Shab3 mutant photoreceptors show the slowly inactivating current is eliminated, but the transient K+ current is intact in these mutants.

Shab3 ommatidia exhibit a standard configuration of photoreceptors with normal rhabdoms. In whole-cell recordings, the cell capacitances, which are dominated by the contribution of the microvillar membrane, are indistinguishable from the wild-type, as is the appearance of dissociated ommatidia.

Shab3 photoreceptors exhibit 'bump' waveforms (elementary responses of the phototransduction machinery corresponding to single-photon absorptions) and impulse responses to light flashes that are similar to wild-type.

The macroscopic kinetics of Shab3 photoreceptors are not significantly different from those of wild-type photoreceptors.

Shab3 photoreceptors show reduced steady-state input resistances.

Shab3 photoreceptors have an input resistance that is significantly reduced from that of wild-type. This decreased input resistance maintains the sensitivity of the photoreceptors to dynamic light intensity fluctuations.

Homozygotes are paralysed within 3 minutes at 39oC. They recover from paralysis within 4 minutes of being transferred to 25oC. The delayed rectifier current (IK) is reduced by 61.2 +/- 2.7% compared to wild-type in Shab3 larval muscles.

The voltage-activated delayed sustained current (IK) is partly reduced (by approximately 65%) in Shab3 larval muscles.

Additional Comments
Genetic Interactions
Statement
Reference

Sh14; Shab3 double mutants are poorly viable and infertile.

Examination of Shab3 photoreceptor whole-cell currents reveals that the steady-state current is at least two-times greater than in Sh14; Shab3 double mutants.
