Detailed Description

Reference

Mutant larvae fail to encapsulate eggs when parasitised by the avirulent L. boulardi wasp strain G486 (no melanisation is seen). Plasmatocytes fully cover the egg, while lamellocytes partially cover it.

There is a small, but statistically significant, defect in presynaptic vesicle release at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) in the ExnEY01953 mutants compared to wild-type controls. Presynaptic release is decreased at each tested external calcium concentrations over a range of 0.2-0.5 mM. Quantal content measured at the NMJ is decreased in ExnEY01953 mutant larvae.

The rapid induction of homeostatic signaling following philanthatoxin (PhTx) application at the NMJ is normal in homo- and heterozygotes of ExnEY01953.

In GluRIIASP16; ExnEY01953 double mutant third instar larvae, similarly to GluRIIASP16 single mutants, the spontaneous miniature release amplitude (mepsp) is decreased at the neuromuscular junctions. However, in contrast to GluRIIASP16 single mutants, GluRIIASP16; ExnEY01953 double mutant neuromuscular junctions do not show a corresponding increase in quantal content.

GluRIIASP16 mutant larvae, also homozygous for an ExnEY01953 allele, show a slight but significant increase in bouton number at the NMJ compared to GluRIIASP16 single mutants.

GluRIIASP16 mutant larvae, also homozygous for an ExnEY01953 allele, show no difference in average active zone number per NMJ compared to GluRIIASP16 single mutants.

The recessive GluRIIASP16 single mutant NMJ synaptic homeostasis phenotype is not enhanced nor suppressed by a heterozygous ExnEY01953/+ mutation.

The recessive GluRIIASP16 single mutant NMJ synaptic homeostatic response is completely suppressed in the presence of a heterozygous cacS/+ mutation in combination with an ExnEY01953/+ heterozygous genetic background.

Expression of cacScer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP driven by Scer\GAL4elav-C155 in a GluRIIASP16; ExnEY01953 double mutant background restores the NMJ synaptic homeostatic response to a significant degree.

cacS/+; ; ExnEY01953/+ double heterozygotes show a severe disruption of the rapid induction of homeostatic signaling at the neuromuscular junction following philanthatoxin (PhTx) application.

The ExnEY01953/+ heterozygous mutation does not enhance the Rho172O/+, GluRIIASP16 double mutant NMJ synaptic homeostasis phenotype.

The ExnEY01953/+ heterozygous mutation does not enhance the Rho1k02107b/+, GluRIIASP16 double mutant NMJ synaptic homeostasis phenotype.

The ExnEY01953/+ heterozygous mutation does not enhance the Rac1J11/+, GluRIIASP16 double mutant NMJ synaptic homeostasis phenotype.

Synaptic homeostasis is completely blocked in larvae that are double heterozygotes for Cdc423/+ and ExnEY01953/+ in a GluRIIASP16 mutant genetic background. There is no deficit in synaptic bouton number in Cdc423/+ , ExnEY01953/+, GluRIIASP16 triple mutants, compared to wild-type or GluRIIASP16 controls.

Synaptic homeostasis is completely blocked in larvae that are double heterozygotes for Cdc424/+ and ExnEY01953/+ in a GluRIIASP16 mutant genetic background.

The heterozygous ExnEY01953/+ mutation alone does not significantly change the recessive GluRIIASP16 phenotype involving the synaptic homeostatic compensation at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ).

The combination of ExnEY01953/+ and Ephx652/+ heterozygous mutations does not significantly change the GluRIIASP16 phenotype involving spontaneous miniature release event (mepsp) amplitudes, while it does partially suppress the GluRIIASP16 quantal content phenotype at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ).

Comments

Presynaptic expression of ExnScer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-EYFP driven by the pan-neuronal driver Scer\GAL4elav-C155 in a GluRIIASP16; ExnEY01953 double mutant background is sufficient to fully rescue the ExnEY01953 specific components in the abnormal neuromuscular junction synaptic homeostasis phenotypes associated with GluRIIASP16; ExnEY01953 double mutants.
