Construct: 11.5kb genomic NotI fragment which encodes the Dvir\mod(mdg4) common exons, five specific exons from isoforms 64.2, 60.1, 53.5, 55.1 and 53.1 and a partial specific exon from isoform 62.3. This fragment is not expected to produce the 62.3 isoform, because both the trans-splice site and a putative promoter driving its expression are not included.
Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 is a suppressor | partially of lethal phenotype of mod(mdg4)neo129/mod(mdg4)02
Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 is a suppressor | partially of lethal phenotype of mod(mdg4)neo129/mod(mdg4)R32
Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 is a suppressor | partially of lethal phenotype of mod(mdg4)07/mod(mdg4)02
Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 is a suppressor | partially of lethal phenotype of mod(mdg4)02/mod(mdg4)R32
Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 is a suppressor of lethal | recessive phenotype of mod(mdg4)02
Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 is a suppressor of lethal | recessive phenotype of mod(mdg4)neo129
Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 is a non-suppressor of lethal phenotype of mod(mdg4)07/mod(mdg4)neo129
One copy of Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 can rescue the lethality of mod(mdg4)02 homozygotes, with the degree of rescue depending on the P{Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5} line used (26.6% and 79.0% viability has been seen). Two copies of Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 completely suppress the lethality of mod(mdg4)02 homozygotes. One copy of Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 can rescue the lethality of mod(mdg4)neo129 homozygotes (92% of the expected progeny survive). One copy of Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 can rescue the lethality of mod(mdg4)02/mod(mdg4)neo129 transheterozygotes, with the degree of rescue depending on the P{Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5} line used (95.1% and full viability has been seen). One copy of Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 can rescue the lethality of mod(mdg4)R32/mod(mdg4)02 transheterozygotes. Rescued males show greater viability (91.8% or 95.9% depending on the P{Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5} line used) compared to rescued females (26.2% or 37.8% depending on the P{Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5} line used). One copy of Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 can rescue the lethality of mod(mdg4)R32/mod(mdg4)neo129 transheterozygotes. Rescued males show greater viability (63.2%) compared to rescued females (40.5%). One copy of Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 does not suppresses the lethality of mod(mdg4)07/mod(mdg4)neo129 transheterozygotes. The lethality of mod(mdg4)07/mod(mdg4)02 transheterozygotes is only slightly suppressed by one copy of Dvir\mod(mdg4)t11.5 (12.5% or 5.4% viability has been seen).
