1037 bp deletion resulting from the imprecise excision of P{EP}mRpL11G4907, which extends from the site of the insertion into exon 1 of HtrA2.
mitochondrion & indirect flight muscle
Homozygous HtrA2Δ1 mutant flies display a 50%-60% reduction in spermatogonial cyst death compared to wild type controls.
The development of HtrA2Δ1 animals (Df(3R)HtrA2Δ1 homozygotes in which the loss of mRpL11 function has been rescued by two copies of mRpL11+t2.0) is completely normal, in particular, showing normal eye morphology.
HtrA2Δ1 mutant wing discs (from Df(3R)HtrA2Δ1 homozygotes in which the loss of mRpL11 function has been rescued by two copies of mRpL11+t2.0) show identical apoptosis induction in response to treatment with γ-rays, staurosporine or ultraviolet light compared to control discs, and also show identical levels of apoptosis to control discs in the absence of any treatment.
Overall structure of the indirect flight muscles (IFMs) is maintained in 30 day old HtrA2Δ1 animals (Df(3R)HtrA2Δ1 homozygotes in which the loss of mRpL11 function has been rescued by two copies of mRpL11+t2.0). However, ultrastructural defects are seen in the IFMs in these animals; there are increased numbers of defective mitochondria, displaying reduced electron density and open cristae, compared to controls. There is no systematic mitochondrial deficiency in the mutant animals.
HtrA2Δ1 animals (Df(3R)HtrA2Δ1 homozygotes in which the loss of mRpL11 function has been rescued by two copies of mRpL11+t2.0) show normal flight and climbing ability at 5 days of age. However, 30 day old mutant flies have significantly reduced flight and climbing ability compared with controls. The number of dopaminergic neurons is normal in the 30 day old mutant flies.
HtrA2Δ1 males (Df(3R)HtrA2Δ1 homozygotes in which the loss of mRpL11 function has been rescued by two copies of mRpL11+t2.0) show 4% fertility compared to controls. Mature individualised sperm are formed properly in the mutant testes, but they are completely immotile.
HtrA2Δ1 animals (Df(3R)HtrA2Δ1 homozygotes in which the loss of mRpL11 function has been rescued by two copies of mRpL11+t2.0) have a reduced lifespan compared to controls. They also show increased sensitivity to paraquat and rotenone compared to controls.

HtrA2Δ1 largely suppresses the rough eye phenotype seen when Pink1Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 is expressed under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF.
HtrA2Δ1 partially suppresses the rough eye phenotype seen when rho-7Scer\UAS.cWa is expressed under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF.
Expression of parkScer\UAS.cGa enhances the rough eye phenotype seen when rho-7Scer\UAS.cWa is expressed under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF, resulting in severe loss of eye tissue. This phenotype is not suppressed by HtrA2Δ1.
park25 partially suppresses the rough eye and ommatidial organisation phenotypes seen when Pink1Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 is expressed under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF. Addition of HtrA2Δ1 suppresses the phenotype completely.
Co-expression of Pink1Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 and parkScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF results in a severe rough eye phenotype, which greatly exceeds that conferred when Pink1Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 is expressed alone. This phenotype is not suppressed in a HtrA2Δ1 mutant background.
HtrA2Δ1 is rescued by HtrA2+t2.5
HtrA2Δ1 is rescued by HtrA2+t2.5
Expression of two copies of HtrA2+t2.5 rescues the germline cell death seen in the spermatogonial cysts of HtrA2Δ1 mutant flies. The levels of germline cell death in these flies are approximately 120% of wild type levels.
