Imprecise excision of the progenitor insertion, resulting in a deletion from -129 to 6550 relative to the predicted translation start site.
Deletion (nucleotides -129 to 6550 relative to the predicted RhoGAP92B translation start site) resulting from the imprecise excision of P{EP}RhoGAP92BG4993.
Homozygotes and RhoGAP92B1/RhoGAP92B2 animals have no obvious defects in pathfinding of motor axons.
Third instar RhoGAP92B1/RhoGAP92B2 larvae show a mild increase in muscle area. They show a 43% reduction in bouton number/muscle area and a 37% reduction in neuromuscular junction (NMJ) length/muscle area compared to wild type. Mean bouton size is increased by 69% compared to controls. Muscle area and NMJ length are normal in first instar RhoGAP92B1/RhoGAP92B2 larvae.
Ultrastructurally, type I boutons show a number of defects in RhoGAP92B1/RhoGAP92B2 third instar larvae. The cross-sectional bouton area is increased and the number of active zones/bouton area is reduced, while the number of T bars/bouton area is normal. Subsynaptic reticulum (SSR) thickness/bouton area is normal, SSR density is reduced and total non-tubular sarcoplasmic area/SSR area is increased.
The amplitude of the excitatory junctional current (EJC) is reduced in RhoGAP92B1/RhoGAP92B2 third instar larvae compared to wild type. The amplitude of the miniature EJC is normal, but there is a small but significant increase in mEJC frequency.
