Expression of DAAMScer\UAS.PD under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PU results in late third instar larvae that are significantly longer than controls. The LV3 muscle is longer than normal, although sarcomere size is slightly shorter than controls. The increase in muscle length is due to a significant increase in sarcomere number. The motility of the larvae is not significantly different from wild type.
Scer\GAL4Mef2.PU/DAAMUAS.PD partially rescues DAAMEx68
Expression of DAAMScer\UAS.PD under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PU almost fully rescues the reduced motility and the body and muscle size of late third instar DAAMEx68 larvae.
