head | embryonic stage (with stepKG09493)
A small but significant proportion of stepk08110/stepKG09493 transheterozygous embryos exhibit lethality, and a large proportion of these also exhibit epidermal defects, including head scars and a "head hole" phenotype. Prior to germband retraction, these mutants display an apparently normal columnar epithelium and apparently normal mitotic domains that expand the epidermal cell population. During germband retraction in these mutants, a large proportion of epidermal cells exhibit apical elongation, while the non-apical elongating cells are frequently clustered in long-lived rosette-like structures, as compared to controls; laser ablation of either myosin cables (labeled by fluorescent Zipper) of adherens junctions (labeled by fluorescent E-Cadherin) in these epidermal cells leads to significantly faster instantaneous recoils than in controls. During mid-dorsal closure in these mutants, the pulsatile actomyosin networks in amnioserosa cells are indistinguishable from controls.
During mid-dorsal closure, stepk08110/Df(2L)BSC150 transheterozygous embryos exhibit a significant increase in the leading-edge cell contact lengths and a frequent clustering in long-lived multi-cellular rosettes, as compared to controls.
Late stepk08110 homozygous pupae display photoreceptor loss.
Expression of stepScer\UAS.FL under the control of Scer\GAL4Act5C.Switch.PR rescues hypomorphic stepk08110 mutants to adulthood.
Expression of stepScer\UAS.FL via Scer\GAL4hs.PB rescues the wing defects found in homozygous stepk08110 mutants. Depending on the duration of the heat shock, rescue is either partial or complete.
Embryos derived from mothers maternally mutant for stepSH0323/stepk08110 have largely lost the endocytic tubules usually seen emanating from early cellularisation furrow canals.
Grp1k08110/Grp1SH0323 male and female adults are significantly smaller and show a drastic decrease in weight compared to control animals, although the body proportions of the mutant animals are not altered compared to wild type. Homozygous and Grp1k08110/Grp1SH0323 larvae are also significantly smaller than controls.
Homozygous third instar larvae show a decrease in endoreduplication activity in the salivary glands, and the size and total number of salivary gland cells is reduced compared to wild type.
A small proportion of homozygotes show embryonic lethality.
The average number of crystal cells per embryo is reduced (to 17.1) in homozygous stage 13-14 embryos compared to wild type (36 +/- 2.2 cells on average).

The increased embryonic lethality of stepk08110/stepKG09493 transheterozygotes and associated "head hole" phenotype are partially rescued by heterozygosity for either zip1 or zip2; conversely, this "head hole" phenotype is severely enhanced by heterozygosity for shgR69, which results in more frequent and wider head holes, often involving merged head and dorsal holes. The epidermal rosette-like structures during germband retraction of stepk08110/stepKG09493 transheterozygous embryos are also partially suppressed by heterozygosity for zip1.
SIIN/stepk08110 trans-heterozygotes exhibit a photoreceptor differentiation phenotype, increased in severity from SIIN heterozygotes.
Maternal heterozygosity for Rho172O almost completely suppresses the furrow canal expansion phenotype seen in stepSH0323/stepk08110 mutant embryos.
Maternal heterozygosity for stepk08110 enhances the furrow canal phenotype seen in embryos derived from mothers expressing AP-2αHMS00653 under the control of Scer\GAL4mat.αTub67C.T:Hsim\VP16.
