UASt drives expression of Hsap\HSPB8 containing a K141N mutation.
Scer\GAL4GMR.PF-driven expression of Hsap\HSPB8Scer\UAS.K141N does not induce any detectable morphological sign of degeneration - no rough eye phenotype is observed up to 20 days after eclosion.
Hsap\HSPB8UAS.K141N, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF is a suppressor of eye phenotype of Hsap\ATXN3tr.Q78.UAS.Tag:HA, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF
Co-expression of Hsap\HSPB8Scer\UAS.K141N significantly decreases the eye degeneration seen in Hsap\MJDtr.Q78.Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF flies.
