cDNA sequence nucleotides 374-2360 (FBrf0050626), which includes the entire open reading frame, is expressed from UASt regulatory sequences. Contains 224 nucleotides of 5' UTR.
fzScer\UAS.cZa, Scer\GAL4en-e16E embryos lose type 1 denticles. This is seen in all embryos, although at times, one or two segments remain unaffected.
When expression is driven by Scer\GAL469B, wing margin structures are properly patterned but the polarity of hairs and margin bristles is perturbed, with bristles pointing straight our from the wing margin, instead of being angled towards the posterior. Interior wing hairs are also affected. When expression is driven by Scer\GAL4hs.2sev, ommatidia are misoriented and the two chiral forms are not regularly segregated into the dorsal and ventral halves of the eye. This is similar to the fz loss of function phenotype. Has no effect on wing phenotypes caused by fzScer\UAS.N. When expression is driven by Scer\GAL4ptc-559.1 in embryos, denticle belt phenotypes include fusions and mirror image duplications, reminiscent of wg weak loss of function alleles.
Scer\GAL469B, fzUAS.cZa has abnormal planar polarity phenotype, non-suppressible by wgl-17
Scer\GAL4ptc-559.1/fzUAS.cZa is a non-enhancer of abnormal planar polarity phenotype of dsUAO71
Scer\GAL469B, fzUAS.cZa has wing margin bristle phenotype, non-suppressible by wgl-17
fzUAS.cZa/Scer\GAL4e22c is a suppressor | partially of ventral denticle belt phenotype of Scer\GAL4e22c, wgPE2.UAS
fzUAS.cZa/Scer\GAL4e22c is a suppressor | partially of embryonic/larval epidermis phenotype of Scer\GAL4e22c, wgPE2.UAS
fzUAS.cZa/Scer\GAL4e22c is a non-suppressor of phenotype of wgPE2
Scer\GAL4prd.RG1/fzUAS.cZa is a non-suppressor of phenotype of wgPE2
Expression of fzScer\UAS.cZa in dsUAO71 larvae under the control of Scer\GAL4ptc-559.1 does not affect denticle belt polarity.
The wing bristle polarity phenotype caused by expression of fzScer\UAS.cZa using Scer\GAL469B cannot be suppressed by wgl-17. Has no effect on wing phenotypes caused by fz2Scer\UAS.N.
