Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

mblE16/mblE27 embryos have a hypercontracted abdomen.

Mutants die as stage 17 embryos or during hatching and show no obvious defects in the formation of somatic and visceral muscles. At the end of embryogenesis embryos are severely paralysed, only twitching movements can be observed and their abdominal segments are strongly contracted. syt staining reveals the neuromuscular junctions can assemble normally. The extracellular tendon matrix (TM) is severely reduced, the muscles are forced to compete for epidermal surface at the segment border. At the ultrastructural level the thick and thin filaments are less ordered and dense in muscles, I-bands are absent, Z-bands are absent and instead only spindle-like concentrations of dark thin fibers can be seen.

The embryonic lethality of mblE16/mblE27 animals is partially rescued by expression of Hsap\MBNLScer\UAS.cGCa under the control of Scer\GAL4da.G32; 78.9% of the embryos hatch.

The embryonic lethality of mblE16/mblE27 animals is only slightly rescued by expression of Hsap\MBNLScer\UAS.cGCa under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR; 18.0% of the embryos hatch.

78.14% of mblE16/mblE27 embryos expressing Hsap\MBNLScer\UAS.cGCa under the control of Scer\GAL4da.G32 hatch into larvae (in contrast to 0% of mblE16/mblE27 embryos) and the hypercontracted abdomen phenotype is greatly reduced.
