UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
DCTN1-p150 silencing in segmental nerves of L3 larvae (DCTN1-p150GD1455, Scer\GAL4D42) significantly reduces the rate of mitochondria transported in the retrograde direction, but has no effect on retrograde speed or anterograde speed/rate.
Scer\GAL4elav-C155-mediated co-expression of DCTN1-p150GD1455 has no apparent effect on eclosion rates.
Larvae expressing GlGD1455 under the control of Scer\GAL4Hml.PG show reduced encapsulation (10%) of eggs when parasitised by the avirulent L. boulardi wasp strain G486. Plasmatocytes fully cover the egg, while lamellocytes partially cover it.
Expression under the control of Scer\GAL41407 results in shorter neuroblast lineages (less daughter cells per neuroblast) in the larval brain compared to controls.
Expression of GlGD1455 under the control of Scer\GAL4upd results in a reduction in the number of outer border follicle cells compared to wild type and also results in defects in border follicle cell migration. Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4slbo.2.6 does not cause these phenotypes.
Adults expressing DCTN1-p150GD1455 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu (in the presence of Dcr-2Scer\UAS.cDa to increase the efficiency of RNAi) do not show a significant defect in avoidance of noxious temperature (46[o]C) compared to control flies.
DCTN1-p150GD1455, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF is an enhancer of eye phenotype of Hsap\MAPTR406W.UAS, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF
DCTN1-p150GD1455, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF is a non-enhancer of eye phenotype of Hsap\ATXN3tr.Q78.UAS.Tag:HA, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF
DCTN1-p150GD1455, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF is a non-suppressor of eye phenotype of Hsap\ATXN3tr.Q78.UAS.Tag:HA, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF
DCTN1-p150GD1455, Hsap\MAPTR406W.UAS, Scer\GAL4elav-C155 has axon | larval stage phenotype
Scer\GAL4elav-C155-mediated expression of Hsap\MAPTR406W.Scer\UAS in combination with silencing of DCTN1-p150 (DCTN1-p150GD1455) results in axonal swellings in larval segmental nerves.
Scer\GAL4elav-C155-mediated co-expression of Hsap\MAPTR406W.Scer\UAS with DCTN1-p150GD1455 strongly reduces eclosion rates.
