axon & ventral nerve cord

Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Homozygous embryos show a moderate loss of denticles and a corresponding increase in naked cuticle.

SoxNGA1192 embryos show defects in the axon scaffolding in the ventral nerve cord, including disruption of the longitudinal axon fascicles, and strong defects in the anterior and posterior commissures.

Mutant embryos show a severe loss of anterior setae which results in a reduction of the anterio-posterior expansion of the denticle belts. There are defects in head formation and in gut constrictions. Mutant embryos show a drastic loss of neurons; for eve-positive neurons there is a 98% loss of RP2 neurons and a 100% loss of EL neuron clusters. The aCC/pCC neurons are only slightly affected (3% loss), and CQ neurons are unaffected. There is also a loss of the parental eve-expressing ganglion mother cells (GMCs), with the frequency of their loss being comparable to that of the loss of their respective neuronal progeny. There is also a severe loss of ftz-positive GMCs and neurons, with the loss occurring mostly in the intermediate and lateral regions of the central nervous system (the ventralmost region forms almost normally). Mutant embryos show loss of neuroblasts (NBs) from the lateral and intermediate regions of the neuroectoderm, while the ventral region is much less affected. Late arising NBs are more severely affected than early arising NBs. NBs that arise at the same time and in the same column are differentially affected. Formation of S1 neuroblasts in the lateral and intermediate columns is severely impaired in stage 9 mutant embryos. Only 1 or 2 NBs are formed in the lateral column per hemisegment (compared to 4 in wild type). Different lateral NBs are differentially affected; NB2-5 fails to form in 22% of hemisegments, NB5-6 fails to form in 82%, NB3-5 fails to form in 60% and NB7-4 fails to form in 66%. In the intermediate column, NB5-3 fails to form in 14% of hemisegments, while NB3-2 fails to form in 67% of hemisegments. The four NBs of the ventral column form almost normally (3% loss for NB1-1, 1% loss for MP2, 2% loss for NB5-2 and 0% loss for NB7-1). Loss of S2 neuroblasts is seen in mutant embryos. In the ventral region of the neuroectoderm, NB2-2 shows 8% loss, and in the intermediate region, NB4-2 shows 98% loss, NB6-2 shows 65% loss and NB7-2 shows 86% loss. Loss of S3 neuroblasts is seen in mutant embryos. In the ventral region of the neuroectoderm, NB3-1 shows 10% loss, NB4-1 shows 7% loss and NB6-1 shows 12% loss, and in the lateral region, NB6-4 shows 97% loss and aGB shows 0% loss. Loss of S4 neuroblasts is seen in mutant embryos. In the ventral region of the neuroectoderm, NB2-1 shows 9% loss, and in the lateral region, NB2-4 shows 98% loss, NB3-3 shows 100% loss, NB4-4 shows 99% loss and NB5-4 shows 24% loss. Loss of S5 neuroblasts is seen in mutant embryos. In the ventral region of the neuroectoderm, NB5-1 shows 6% loss, and in the lateral region, NB4-3 shows 100% loss, NB5-5 shows 95% loss and NB7-3 shows 100% loss. E(spl)rv1 SoxNGA1192 double mutant embryos show a combination of the neurogenic E(spl)rv1 phenotype and the anti-neural SoxNGA1192 phenotype. The neurogenic phenotype is apparent in the ventral column of the S1 neuroblasts. In the lateral column, the anti-neural phenotype of SoxNGA1192 remains unchanged in the double mutant embryos.

Approximately 58.2% of arm4/+ ; SoxNGA1192/+ double mutants appear phenotypically wild-type. Approximately 17.4% of mutants exhibit a 'lawn of denticles' phenotype, typical of arm mutants. The SoxNGA1192 mutation disrupts the dorsal pattern and reduces the size of the embryos. A SoxN-like phenotype is observed in approximately 17.6% of the double mutants. Approximately 6.8% of the double mutants exhibit a severe arm phenotype.

Approximately 55.9% of pan2/+ ; SoxNGA1192/+ double mutants appear phenotypically wild-type. Approximately 19.2% of mutants exhibit a 'lawn of denticles' phenotype, typical of arm mutants. The SoxNGA1192 mutation disrupts the dorsal pattern and reduces the size of the embryos. A SoxN-like phenotype is observed in approximately 17.7% of the double mutants. Approximately 7.2% of the double mutants exhibit a severe excess-naked-cuticle SoxN-like phenotype. The double mutants exhibit more extensive naked cuticle than SoxNGA1192 single mutants.

The ectopic denticle formation seen in larvae expressing EgfrAct.cUa.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4sca.PU is strongly reduced by SoxNGA1192.

Sema-2a03021/+; SoxNGA1192/+ mutants are viable.

lola00642/+, SoxNGA1192/+ double heterozygous embryos show defects in axon scaffolding, such as fusion of commissures, axonal tangles, disruption and/or reduction of longitudinal connectives. This phenotype is not seen in either single mutant heterozygote.

beat-Ia/+, SoxNGA1192/+ double heterozygous embryos commissures are partially fused and the longitudinal connectives are thinner or missing. This phenotype is not seen in either beat-Ia/+ or SoxNGA1192/+ embryos.

The NB1-1 neuroblast fails to form in 48% of hemisegments in D87 SoxNGA1192 double mutant embryos. The NB5-3 neuroblast fails to form in 25% of hemisegments in D87 SoxNGA1192 double mutant embryos.
