Lis-1E415/+ results in a significant increase in the number of transported mitochondria in the wing marginal nerve, as compared to controls.
Lis-1E415/Lis-1k11702 results in a significant increase in the number of transported mitochondria in the wing marginal nerve in both anterograde and retrograde directions, and a small but significant increase in anterograde run velocity of mitochondria, as measured at several stages of adult life, but there is no significant difference in the total number of mitochondria, mitochondrial transport lengths or retrograde velocity, no significant difference in the proportion of motile dense-core vesicles, compared to controls.
Centrosome positioning and microtubule organisation are not perturbed in cycle 14 blastoderm embryos derived from Lis-1E415/Lis-1k11702 females.
50% of Lis-1E415/Df(2R)Jp8 egg chambers contain 16 polyploid nuclei, indicating that each cell has adopted the nurse cell fate. In 20% of egg chambers an oocyte is detectable, but is often mispositioned. The remaining 30% of egg chambers show a later defect in cyst encapsulation. A microtubule organising centre, which normally develops in the oocyte as early as region 2 of the germarium, is usually not seen in Lis-1E415/Df(2R)Jp8 egg chambers. Lis-1E415/Df(2R)Jp8 egg chambers rarely contain fewer than 16 cells and appear to develop a normal fusome that is correctly associated with the mitotic spindle. The oocyte is greatly reduced in size in homozygous stage 8 egg chambers. Later stage egg chambers are almost wild-type in size. The oocyte nucleus is positioned incorrectly in 50% of homozygous stage 9 and 10 egg chambers. Some alterations in microtubule organisation are seen after stage 7 in homozygous egg chambers, the microtubules often appear less focused than normal.

Lis-1[+]/Lis-1E415, Scer\GAL4VP16.mat.αTub67C is an enhancer of egg phenotype of Hsap\DCTN2UAS.cJa, Scer\GAL4VP16.mat.αTub67C
Lis-1[+]/Lis-1E415, Scer\GAL4VP16.mat.αTub67C is an enhancer of dorsal appendage phenotype of Hsap\DCTN2UAS.cJa, Scer\GAL4VP16.mat.αTub67C
The proportion of eggs laid by Hsap\DCTN2Scer\UAS.cJa; Scer\GAL4mat.αTub67C.T:Hsim\VP16 flies with severe dorsal-ventral patterning defects is enhanced by heterozygosity for Lis-1E415/+.
