Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Expression of one copy of Hsap\SPTBN2AM.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF results in a severe rough eye phenotype characterised by disorganised ommatidia and loss of mechanosensory bristles. 10 day old flies show a severe disruption of the retinal organisation, with thinning of the retina and loss of retinal neurons. The extent of the neurodegeneration in the eye becomes more severe as flies age. By day 30 the eyes show dramatic changes in pigmentation and abundant necrotic tissue.

Expression of one copy of Hsap\SPTBN2AM.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU results in a reduced bouton number per muscle area in neuromuscular junctions on ventral longitudinal muscles 6/7 of larval abdominal segments 2 and 3. Approximately 31% of third instar larvae carrying two copies of the transgene exhibit a "tail-flip" crawling phenotype due to paralysis of the posterior segments of the body. No crawling defects are observed in larvae when only one copy of the transgene is present. Vesicle movement in segmental axons does not appear to be disrupted when one copy of the transgene is expressed.

Third instar larvae expressing one copy of Hsap\SPTBN2AM.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU in a heterozygous Dhc64C6-10 mutant background exhibit a "tail flip" phenotype due to posterior paralysis as well as axonal vesicle accumulation. These phenotypes are not detected in either mutant alone.

One copy of Dhc64C6-10 enhances the synapse size phenotype seen in the neuromuscular junction when Hsap\SPTBN2AM.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Hsap\MYC is expressed under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU.

The rough eye phenotype that is observed when Hsap\SPTBN2AM.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Hsap\MYC is expressed under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF is enhanced in a Dhc64C6-10/+ background. Severe eye phenotypes are seen involving disruptions of the ommatidial hexagonal packaging and loss of interommatidial bristles.

44% of third instar larvae expressing one copy of Hsap\SPTBN2AM.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU in a heterozygous Gl1 mutant background exhibit a "tail flip" phenotype due to posterior paralysis. 18% of larvae exhibit paralysis in the absence of the Scer\GAL4elav.PU driver.

Expression of one copy of Hsap\SPTBN2AM.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF in a Gl1/+ mutant background enhances the rough eye and ommatidial disorganisation phenotypes seen in either mutant alone. Eyes from double mutant flies are reduced in size and show a dramatic roughness of the eye surface.
