Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

ninaEG69D heterozygotes exhibit severe loss of rhabdomeres and photoreceptor cells, and small ERG response amplitudes and a complete loss of transients, ~25 days after eclosion.

ninaEG69D heterozygotes show prominent retinal degeneration, as compared to wild-type controls.

Mutant flies raised under a 12 hour day/light cycle do not show retinal degeneration.

Heterozygous flies show a progressive retinal degeneration.

Heterozygotes show progressive retinal degeneration (assayed by loss of the pseudopupil); the pseudopupils disappear beginning at 12 days after eclosion in a progressive manner, with only 10% of flies showing intact pseudopupils at 28 days after eclosion. In 21 day old flies, most ommatidia are in disarray, with large vacuoles and with an overall reduction of rhabdomere numbers.

Sixty-day old ninaEG69D homozygous mutant retina desiplay defects in the ommatidia trapezoidal arrangement and occasional photoreceptor cell loss.

The pseudopupil of ninaEG69D/+ flies starts to disappear, in a progressive manner, after 16 days. After 24 days, no ninaEG69D/+ flies with a pseudopupil are observed.

Severe retinal degradation.

Statement
Reference

The retinal degeneration observed in ninaEG69D heterozygotes is exacerbated by hiroF1 homozygosity, but is not rescued by the expression of hiroScer\UAS.T:SV5\V5 under the control of Scer\GAL4ninaE.PT.

The presence of ninaEG69D/+ rescues the photoreceptor degeneration phenotype seen in Fatpk10307 clones in the retina.

The time course of retinal degeneration seen in ninaEG69D/+ flies is delayed in a Mekk1Ur36/Mekk1Ur36 background.

The time course of retinal degeneration seen in ninaEG69D/+ flies is delayed in by expression of Cdk5GD13840 under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF.

Expression of sip3Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC or Edem2Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4ninaE.PT dramatically decreases the rate of pseudopupil loss seen in ninaEG69D/+ flies. The ommatidial defects seen in 21 day old ninaEG69D/+ flies are also suppressed in the double mutants.

Expression of Edem1Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4ninaE.PT slightly delays the rate of pseudopupil loss seen in ninaEG69D/+ flies. The ommatidial defects seen in 21 day old ninaEG69D/+ flies are mildly suppressed in the double mutants.

Reduced ninaE dosage in ninaEG69D heterozygotes protects photoreceptor cells from Scer\GAL4ninaE.PT-p53Scer\UAS.cJa-induced apoptosis.

A Xbp1k13803/+ background significantly accelerates the retinal degeneration of ninaEG69D/+ flies: the pseudopupil of approximately 30% of Xbp1k13803/+ ninaEG69D/+ flies starts to disappear by day 8 (i.e. 8 days earlier than in ninaEG69D/+ flies) and no pseudopupils are observed after day 16.

A Xbp1excP/+ background has no effect on the degeneration of ninaEG69D/+ eyes.
