Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

trolnull cap cell clones, induced during the larval and pupal stages, result in cap cell displacement from the niche; only germaria containing 3 or more mutant cap cells showed the cap cell displacement.

Hemizygous embryos show ISNb motor axon guidance defects (59.9% of hemisegments) and SNa motor axon guidance defects (38.7% of hemisegments). ISNb axons fail to defasciculate at muscles 6 and 7 and some axons stall between muscles 6 and 13. SNa axons fail to reach their proper targets.

trolnull hemizygous embryonic hemocytes show decreased competence to undertake phagocytosis of apoptotic cells, as compared to controls.

Homozygous follicle cell clones have normal apical-basal polarity under normal food conditions.

Homozygous somatic follicle-cell clones often lose epithelial tissue organisation; about 50% of clones in stage 6-9 egg chambers show a multilayer phenotype.

Reference

The commissural axon phenotype (failure to cross the midline) seen in embryos expressing Sema-1aScer\UAS.cYa under the control of Scer\GAL4P52 in a Sema-1ak13702 null background is significantly suppressed if the embryos are also heterozygous for trolnull.

trolnull/+ ; Sema-1ak13702/+ double heterozygous embryos show ISNb motor axon guidance defects (51.0% of hemisegments) and SNa motor axon guidance defects (41.8% of hemisegments).

trolnull/+ ; Df(4)C3/+ double heterozygous embryos show ISNb motor axon guidance defects (51.5% of hemisegments) and SNa motor axon guidance defects (40% of hemisegments).

Comments

Expression of trolScer\UAS.RG under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU significantly rescues the ISNb and SNa motor axon guidance defects seen in trolnull embryos. Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4repo.PU only very modestly rescues the motor axon defects, and expression under the control of Scer\GAL4twi.PU fails to rescue the motor axon defects.
