Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

slmbL.hs; slmb8/slmb9H4-17 transheterozygous ovaries exhibit defects in stau localisation and in the organisation of epithelial follicle cells. Mutant egg chambers exhibit multiple cell layers.

Neoplastic transformation is seen in slmb8 mutant wing disc clones.

slmb8 mutant ddaC neuron clones exhibit dendrite pruning defects at 16 hours after puparium formation. No difference is seen at the white prepupal stage.

slmb8, slmbL.hs mutants, in the absence of heat shock, exhibit early lethality. A single 30 minute heat shock at 37[o]C during first instar is enough to allow some larvae to reach the wandering third instar stage 4 days later. These larval display small imaginal discs.

When slmbL.hs is used to rescue slmb8 mutants to adulthood, mutant adults completely arrhythmic in constant dark (DD) conditions. Ventral lateral neurons are normal. These animals do not display the light-off anticipation of activity that characterises a functional clock. The addition of slmbScer\UAS.cGa driven by Scer\GAL4P2.4.Pdf or Scer\GAL41118 rescues these phenotype.

Lowering aPKC levels, by a aPKCk06403 heterozygous background, partially suppresses the multilayering cell phenotype found in slmbL.hs;slmb8/slmb9H4-17 mutants.

Mical15256 slmb8 double mutant ddaC neuron clones have more severe dendrite pruning defects at 16 hours after puparium formation as are seen in either single mutant alone. No change is seen in the level of pruning at the white prepupal stage.

The presence of slmb8 enhances the notched wing phenotype observed in flies expressing Mmus\BaxScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4vg.PM.
