Detailed Description

Reference

The morphology of the male X polytene chromosome is severely disrupted in E(bx)Nurf301-2/Df(3L)3643 mutants; the chromosome appears very wide at the expense of length compared to wild type.

Mutants fail to pupariate.

The male X chromosome in homozygous mutants is highly aberrant. This is also seen in E(bx)Nurf301-2/E(bx)Nurf301-3 mutants. E(bx)Nurf301-2/E(bx)Nurf301-2, E(bx)Nurf301-2/E(bx)Nurf301-3, E(bx)Nurf301-2/E(bx)Nurf301-4 and E(bx)Nurf301-2/E(bx)ry122 mutant larvae exhibit melanotic tumours. The circulating hemocyte cell number in hemolymph isolated from homozygous mutants is increased considerably with respect to wild-type animals, having about 16000 per ul-1, compared to about 4500 in wild-type.

The penetrance of the melanotic mass phenotype seen in hopTum/+ females is enhanced if they also carry one copy of E(bx)Nurf301-2.

E(bx)Nurf301-2 enhances the eye defects seen in flies in which the eyes are homozygous for Iswi2 in an otherwise heterozygous background (generated using the EGUF technique).

Heterozygosity for E(bx)Nurf301-2 strongly enhances the penetrance and severity of the wing margin defects seen in Df(1)N-54l9 heterozygotes.

The severity of the mutant eye phenotype caused by expression of IswiK159R.Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 under the control of Scer\GAL4ey.PH is enhanced by E(bx)Nurf301-2.

The frequency of abnormal dorsal appendages in embryos derived from females carrying EcRB1-ΔC655.F645A.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4slbo.2.6 (23%) is increased if the females are also heterozygous for E(bx)Nurf301-2 (70%).

The addition of E(bx)Nurf301-2 enhances the melanotic tumour phenotype seen in hopTum/+ larvae, so that over 60% exhibit tumours at 25oC and 80% at 28oC, in the case of E(bx)Nurf301-2.
