Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

CycB2/+ embryos exhibit a significant increase in S-phase length while they do not exhibit any changes in centriole growth rate, growth period or size when compared to controls.

CycB2 homozygous germaria show an abnormal accumulation of undifferentiated, pre-cystoblast cells, as compared to controls, although about of third of them completely lack germline stem cells. These mutant germaria show an increased number of spectrosome-containing single cells, as compared to controls.

Mutant ovaries contain few or no germ cells.

Over 95% of embryos derived from CycB2/CycB3 ; CycB2xNRE.hb females have defects in the abdominal segments, the posterior terminalia, or both. In extreme cases, the embryos die with an open posterior hole and not segments following the third thoracic one. The defects appear to arise during nuclear cleavage cycles 9-13; the somatic nuclei in the posterior of the embryos delay progression through cycles 9-13 and ultimately lose contact with the embryonic cortex, falling into the interior.

Mutant embryos appear to start cytokinesis earlier than wild-type embryos. These embryos also appear to stay in cytokinesis longer than normal.

Mutant females have rudimentary ovaries and lay few eggs. Homozygotes and hemizygotes reach adulthood.

Cell death induced by bsk knockdown in cells exhibiting chromosomal instability (through expression of mad2GD16427) is reduced by lengthening G[[2]] through a CycB2 heterozygous background.

Reducing the level of CycB, through a CycB2/+ background, greatly enhances the Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16>DetS125E.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Avic\GFP gain-of-function phenotype. Further reduction in the level of CycB, through a CycB2/CycBKG08886 background, greatly enhances the Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16>DetS125E.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Avic\GFP gain-of-function phenotype.

The nuclear division defects seen in embryos derived from homozygous XpdSH2137 females expressing XpdScer\UAS.T:SV5\V5 under the control of Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL are partially rescued if the females are carrying CycB2/+.

Reduction of maternal CycB by one half (using the CycB2 allele) in the Capr2/Df(3L)Cat, Fmr13/+ background partially rescues the premature mitosis 14 phenotype seen in embryos of this genotype. (Reduction of the zygotic contribution of CycB has no effect.)

snf148 ; CycB2 double mutant ovaries are not tumourous and contain few or no germ cells, similar to the CycB2 single mutant phenotype.

The reduced size of the posterior compartment of the wing that is seen in animals expressing crolScer\UAS.cMa under the control of Scer\GAL4en-e16E is suppressed if they are also heterozygous for CycB2.

The lethality seen in mei-4129D males in which excision of an insertion of P{hswa} is induced during development is partly suppressed by CycB2/+.

The lethality seen in mei-4129D males in which excision of an insertion of P{hswa} is induced during development is completely suppressed if the female parent carries CycAC8LR1 and if the male progeny carries both CycAC8LR1 and CycB2.

The rough eye phenotype seen in mei-4129D ; DNApol-α180Emus304/+ adults is partially rescued by CycB2/+.

Adult viability of CycD2/Y ; CycB2/+ males is 90% of expected value.

The addition of CycB2 has no effect on Mybunspecified viability.

CycAC8LR1, CycB2 double mutants arrest mesodermal division at mitosis 15 a more severe phenotype than CycAC8LR1 alone. Also a further reduction in the number of myocardial cells is seen.

CycB3L6540 CycB- (CycB2 or Df(2R)599-5) double mutants have defective late mitotic figures during mitosis 15 and multipolar spindles at stage 13.
