    Liprin-αoos mutants show mis-targeting of R7 axons from the medulla M6 layer to the M3 layer.

    R7 axons terminate prematurely in the same target layer in the medulla, M3, as R8 axons.

    The number of synaptic boutons at the muscle 6/7 synapses in abdominal segments A2 and A3 in Liprin-αoos animals is ~70% of that from control larvae.

    Viability is 19-22% of the expected number.

    Liprin-αoos mutants exhibit aberrant R7 photoreceptor targeting, where approximately 37% of R7 axons project beyond the R8 layer. R1-R6 targeting is as wild-type.

    Liprin-αoos mutants exhibit a normal R7 photoreceptor projection pattern at 24hrs.

    There is no obvious difference between the adult medulla of Liprin-αoos heterozygotes and Liprin-αoos homozygous mutants.

    Embryos lacking both maternal and zygotic Liprin-αoos do not display a 'bypass' phenotype (resulting from a failure of the ISNb branch of the projection to defasciculate from the ISN branch).

    Liprin-αoos somatic clones exhibit approximately 50% normal R7 targeting.

    Stage 14 oocytes from Liprin-αoos females are indistinguishable from wild-type.

    Stage 14 oocytes from Liprin-αoos/Df(2L)Exel7027 females are indistinguishable from wild-type.

    In Liprin-αoos, Liprin-βΔ83 or Liprin-αoos, Liprin-βΔ51 double mutants, many R7 axons terminate prematurely in the M3 layer of the medulla. However, a few R7 axons extend far beyond the boundary of the medulla.

    Expression of Liprin-βdsRNA.Scer\UAS using Scer\GAL4sev.EP in a Liprin-αoos background results in many R7 axons terminating prematurely in the M3 layer of the medulla, with a few R7 axons extending far beyond the boundary of the medulla.

    The premature termination of R7 axons in Liprin-αoos mutants is strongly rescued by trioGMR.PN.

    Liprin-αoos, Liprin-βΔ51 double mutants show an additional 25-30% decrease in bouton number compared with either single mutant. The viability of double mutants (4% of the expected number) is reduced compared to either single mutant.

    Liprin-αoos, Liprin-βΔ51, Liprin-γS1/Liprin-γH1 triple mutant synapses are larger than Liprin-αoos, Liprin-βΔ51 double mutants.

    Liprin-αoos, Liprin-γS1/Liprin-γH1 double mutants show significantly improved R7 targeting compared with Liprin-αoos single mutants. Double mutants also show increased viability compared to Liprin-αoos single mutants, and double mutant males are fertile whereas Liprin-αoos single mutant males are sterile.

    Scer\GAL4elav-C155-mediated expression of trioScer\UAS.cBa restores the number of boutons in Liprin-αoos animals to control levels.

    Overexpression of LarScer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 in a Liprin-αoos mutant background has little effect on R7 targeting.

    Liprin-αoos LarC12 somatic clones exhibit defects in R7 targeting in over 80% of cases. This is a statistically significant difference to wild-type. They have fewer correctly targeted R7 axons than clones homozygous for LarC12.

    Comments

    Expression of Liprin-αScer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 in the neurons, under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 rescues aberrant R7 photoreceptor targeting in Liprin-αoos mutants.

    Expression of Liprin-αΔN.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 does not rescue the Liprin-αoos mutant phenotype.
