hide Detailed Description
Statement
Reference
robo5,sli1/+,+ embryos typically display two to four axon bundles of the medial longitudinal pathway inappropriately crossing the midline per animal. The addition of enaGC1/+, enaGC5/+ or enaGC8/+ to these flies produces a dramatic enhancement of this phenotype, many more crossovers are seen, often several per segment. The addition of AblEP3101 driven by Scer\GAL4elav.PLu also enhances this phenotype, whilst the addition of Abl1 or Abl4 suppresses the phenotype.
All central nervous system axons converge on the midline in sli1/sli2 embryos.
embryonic lethal (homozygotes) Head involution abnormal. More severe abnormality in Df/sli than In the ventral nervous system, transverse commissures lacking entirely. Midline neurons and supportive mesectodermal cells missing. sli/sli indicates that sli is hypomorphic in nature.

sli[1], robo[5] transheterozygous stage 16 embryos exhibit thinner than normal fascicles and midline crossing defects. A kuz[H143] background enhances the FasII midline crossing phenotype seen in sli[1], robo[5] transheterozygous stage 16 embryos. A kuz[e29-4] background enhances the FasII axon midline crossing phenotype seen in sli[1], robo[5] transheterozygous stage 16 embryos. A kuz[112] background enhances the FasII midline crossing phenotype seen in sli[1], robo[5] transheterozygous stage 16 embryos. One copy each of sli[1] and robo[5] enhances the FasII axon midline crossing phenotype seen in kuz[H143] stage 16 embryos.
Double heterozygous sli[1]/+, robo[5]/+ embryos exhibit minor defects in midline crossing.
In robo5/+, sli1/+ transheterozygous embryos, the medial longitudinal pathway occasionally crosses the midline. The addition of RhoGAP93BdsRNA.Scer\UAS (driven by Scer\GAL4elav.PLu) significantly enhances this phenotype. The subsequent addition of RhoGAP93BScer\UAS.cHa suppresses this enhancement. In robo5/+, sli1/+ transheterozygous embryos, the medial longitudinal pathway occasionally crosses the midline. The addition of RhoGAPp190dsRNA.Scer\UAS, RhoGAP19DdsRNA.H.Scer\UAS, CdGAPrdsRNA.H.Scer\UAS, RacGAP50CdsRNA.H.Scer\UAS, RhoGAP100FdsRNA.H.Scer\UAS (driven by Scer\GAL4elav.PLu) does not enhance this phenotype. In robo5/+, sli1/+ transheterozygous embryos, the medial longitudinal pathway occasionally crosses the midline. The addition of RacGAP84CScer\UAS.cRa (driven by Scer\GAL4elav.PLu) has no effect on this phenotype.
sli1, robo5 transheterozygotes exhibit approximately 2.7 defects in longitudinal axon guidance per animal. An average of 24% of segments show defects. Also 27% of embryos also exhibit defects in pCC/MP1. Heterozygous dock04723 enhances the longitudinal axon guidance and pCC/MP1 defects seen in transheterozygous sli1, robo5 mutants. An average of 7.4 defects are seen per animal. 67% of segments (calculated as number of defects/segments) show defects, and 72% of embryos show defects in pCC/MP1. Heterozygous dock3 enhances the longitudinal axon ectopic midline crossing defect seen in transheterozygous sli1, robo5 mutants. An average of 5.7 defects are seen per animal. 52% of segments (calculated as number of defects/segments) show defects. Overexpression of PakScer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu enhances the longitudinal axon guidance and pCC/MP1 defects seen in transheterozygous sli1, robo5 mutants. An average of 6.1 defects are seen per animal. 55% of segments (calculated as number of defects/segments) show defects. Heterozygous Pak4 enhances the frequency of central nervous system axon defects seen in sli1, robo5 mutants. An average of 6.1 defects are seen per animal. 54% of segments (calculated as number of defects/segments) show defects. Heterozygous Pak11 enhances the frequency of central nervous system axon defects seen in sli1, robo5 mutants. An average of 5.8 defects are seen per animal. 53% of segments (calculated as number of defects/segments) show defects. Overexpression of PakScer\UAS.T:Myr1 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu enhances the longitudinal axon defects seen in transheterozygous sli1, robo5 mutants. An average of 14.3 defects are seen per animal. 130% of segments (calculated as number of defects/segments) show defects.
sli1, robo5 transheterozygotes exhibit approximately 2.7 defects in longitudinal axon guidance per animal. An average of 24% of segments show defects. Also 27% of embryos also exhibit defects in pCC/MP1. Heterozygous dock04723 enhances the longitudinal axon guidance and pCC/MP1 defects seen in transheterozygous sli1, robo5 mutants. An average of 7.4 defects are seen per animal. 67% of segments (calculated as number of defects/segments) show defects, and 72% of embryos show defects in pCC/MP1. Heterozygous dock3 enhances the longitudinal axon ectopic midline crossing defect seen in transheterozygous sli1, robo5 mutants. An average of 5.7 defects are seen per animal. 52% of segments (calculated as number of defects/segments) show defects. Overexpression of PakScer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu enhances the longitudinal axon guidance and pCC/MP1 defects seen in transheterozygous sli1, robo5 mutants. An average of 6.1 defects are seen per animal. 55% of segments (calculated as number of defects/segments) show defects. Heterozygous Pak4 enhances the frequency of central nervous system axon defects seen in sli1, robo5 mutants. An average of 6.1 defects are seen per animal. 54% of segments (calculated as number of defects/segments) show defects. Heterozygous Pak11 enhances the frequency of central nervous system axon defects seen in sli1, robo5 mutants. An average of 5.8 defects are seen per animal. 53% of segments (calculated as number of defects/segments) show defects. Overexpression of PakScer\UAS.T:Myr1 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu enhances the longitudinal axon defects seen in transheterozygous sli1, robo5 mutants. An average of 14.3 defects are seen per animal.
In sli1/+,robo5/+ double heterozygote embryos the occasional axon crosses the midline. This phenotype is dramatically enhanced by Nedd4Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC.
Over half of sim2, sli1 embryos exhibit a 'collapsed axon' phenotype, about a third a have fused commissures. Midline cells are displaced ventrally in these embryos. Half of jing01094, sli1 double homozygous embryos exhibit a 'collapsed axon' phenotype, about a third a have fused commissures. Midline cells are displaced ventrally in these embryos.
28% of segments contain Fas2-positive neurons inappropriately crossing the midline in sli1/robo1 double heterozygous embryos, in contrast to either single heterozygote which do not show this defect. 26% of segments contain Fas2-positive neurons inappropriately crossing the midline in sli1/robo4 double heterozygous embryos, in contrast to either single heterozygote which show defects in 0 or 1% of segments. sli1 dominantly enhances the robo5 phenotype, resulting in a lateral compression of the axon scaffold in the central nervous system. sli1 robo5 double homozygotes have a phenotype similar to that of sli1 single homozygotes.
