Deletion removes 9.3kb from nucleotide 26 in the H 5' UTR, though the H transcription unit and up to nucleotide 2296 in the Pi3K92E cDNA (coordinates of FBrf0091111). The predicted remnant of Pi3K92E would be amino acids 1-668 plus RCAV, followed by a stop, though this remnant is either unstable or not expressed.
9.3 kb deletion resulting from the imprecise excision of P{lacW}HD179. Extends from nucleotide 26 of H 5'UTR (GB:M95192 coordinates used) to base 2296 of the Pi3K92E cDNA (GB:Y09070 coordinates used). Position of deletion on reference sequence inferred by FlyBase curator.
Follicle cell organisation is not disrupted by homozygous clones in the follicle cells.
11% of embryos fail to reach dorsal closure. Of those that reach dorsal closure, 19% fail to complete the process, with a further 11% closing but showing puckering at the dorsal seam. Embryos that reach the latter stages of dorsal closure consisting show a change in the shape of the dorsal hole, having an elongated flattened shape compared to the wild-type eye shape. The number of filopodia at the leading edge is significantly reduced in mutant embryos.
Pi3K92E2H1/Pi3K92EA mutant adult flies have a reduced body weight compared to heterozygous controls.
Lipid and carbohydrate content are increased in Pi3K92E2H1/Pi3K92EA mutant flies compared to controls.
Pi3K92E2H1/Pi3K92EA mutant flies exhibit normal electroretinogram (ERG) readings.
Cholinesterase activity is not significantly reduced in Pi3K92E2H1/Pi3K92EA mutant flies compared to controls.
Pi3K92EA/Pi3K92E5W3 mutant adult flies have a reduced body weight compared to heterozygous controls.
Lipid and carbohydrate content are increased in Pi3K92EA/Pi3K92E5W3 mutant flies compared to controls.
Pi3K92EA/Pi3K92E5W3 mutant flies exhibit defective electroretinogram (ERG) readings.
Cholinesterase activity is not significantly reduced in Pi3K92EA/Pi3K92E5W3 mutant flies compared to controls.
Flies with the genotype "Df(3R)Pi3K92EA, P{HBS}/Df(3R)Pi3K92EA", which are effectively heterozygous for H but null for Pi3K92E, do not eclose.
Pi3K92EA exhibits a high-diapause phenotype, where the proportion of individuals in diapause is higher than in wild-type flies.
Pi3K92EA mutants show no defects in opsin regulation.
Homozygous clones in the eye have very small ommatidia with rotation defects.
Autophagy induced in fat body even under non-starvation conditions.
The Pi3K92EA/Pi3K92E2H1 combination results in proportionally smaller than normal flies.
Df(3R)Pi3K92EA/Df(3R)Pi3K92E-B, P{HBS} mutants (null for Pi3K92E) stop growing early in the third larval instar. Though they continue to move and feed for approximately 20 days they never get any bigger. Larvae are transparent, lack imaginal discs and have reduced fat body. Nervous system, trachea and gut appear normal. Mutant clones in the eye reveal that Pi3K92E is autonomously required for adult cells to reach their normal size.
Pi3K92E2H1/Pi3K92EA is a non-suppressor of visible phenotype of Ras85DG12V.Y40C.UAS, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF
Pi3K92E2H1/Pi3K92EA is a non-suppressor of ommatidium phenotype of Ras85DG12V.Y40C.UAS, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF
The rough eye phenotype caused by expression of Ras85DG12V.Y40C.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF is not suppressed by Pi3K92EA/Pi3K92E2H1.
