Description

Imprecise excision of Mi{ET1}NetoMB05569, resulting in removal of sequence X:13374424-13378804 , containing exon 3 (the start codon-containing exon) of Neto. Neto protein is reduced to ~40% of the wild type level in Neto109 third instar larval muscle tissue. RT-PCR analyses of Neto109 mRNA recovers only one truncated Neto cDNA, without the exon deleted in Neto109.

Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Neto109 mutants show a significant reduction in bouton number compared to controls.

Neto109 mutants show a significant reduction in bouton number at muscles 6/7 and 4 NMJs compared to controls.

Neto109 shows 50% pupal lethality under optimal culturing conditions. Adult escapers appear morphologically normal and are fertile, but cannot fly and have severe locomotor defects. These flies cannot straighten themselves from an upside down position and show impaired walking behaviour.

The spontaneous miniature potentials from muscle 6 of third instar larvae are reduced from 6 times per second in controls to 0.3 times per second in Neto109 animals. The amplitude of these mini potentials is also reduced.

The amplitude of evoked excitatory junctional potentials is reduced in Neto109 third instar larvae, while the quantal content remains unaltered, compared with wild type controls.

Type I boutons at the muscle 6/7 cleft in multiple abdominal segments in Neto109 third instar larvae are reduced by up to 40%. The synaptic boutons have abnormal, irregular shapes, and the post-synaptic domains exhibit gross abnormal ultrastructural profiles.
