Statement
Reference
Axn[S044230] mutant clone cells in third instar wing discs apically constrict and invaginate to form cysts.
Axn[S044230] mutant embryos display an entirely naked cuticle.
Homozygous intestinal stem cell clones in the adult midgut show hyperplasia.
Homozygous Axn[S044230] germ-line clone-derived embryos are completely devoid of ventral denticles. Homozygous Axn[S044230] germ-line clone-derived embryos expressing Axn[Scer\UAS.cHa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[da.G32] show supernumerary denticles in the ventral embryonic epidermis. Expression of Axn[Scer\UAS.T:Src64B,T:Zzzz\FLAG] under the control of Scer\GAL4[da.G32] can restore ventral denticle belt patterning to some extent of homozygous Axn[S044230] germ-line clone-derived embryos.
BrdU incorporation is increased in AxnS044230/AxnS044230 somatic clones in the third instar wing disc. This effect is cell autonomous, and strongest when clones are located in the proximal regions of the wing pouch or in the prospective wing hinge and is not seen in clones at the center of the wing pouch. Flow cytometry analysis shows that these mutant clones contain a lower proportion of cells in G1 than in wild-type.
AxnS044230 somatic stem cell (SSC) clones in the ovary are lost more rapidly than wild-type clones. In germaria carrying both wild-type and AxnS044230 mutant SSC clones, mutant follicle cells appear more in number than wild-type ones, indicating that AxnS044230 SSCs and/or follicle cells are over-proliferative. In germaria where most or all the follicle cells are mutant for AxnS044230, germline cysts do not undergo normal morphological changes from ball-like structures in region 2a to lens-shape cysts in region 2b, remaining in ball-like structures in region 2b. Mutant follicle cells do not integrate properly into egg chambers and accumulate instead as a disorganised mass between egg chambers. The mutant follicle cells have abnormal morphology, but neighbouring wild-type cells are normal in morphology.
The cuticles produced by maternal/zygotic AxnS044230/AxnS044230 embryos consist entirely of smooth cuticle, with the exception of the T1 beard.
Homozygous clones in the wing show transformations of wing blade to wing margin tissue.
Homozygotes die as first instar larvae. Homozygous embryos (lacking zygotic Axn function) have almost normal segment patterning. Embryos lacking both maternal and zygotic Axn function are completely naked, lacking all denticles. Embryos lacking maternal Axn function and having one paternal wild-type copy of Axn have some denticles on the ventral cuticle. Homozygous clones in the wing cell autonomously produce ectopic margin bristles. Homozygous clones in the leg produce a supernumerary leg from the dorsal side of the normal leg. Ectopic bristles are formed in the pleura by homozygous clones in the abdomen.
Early lethal.

Apc2[19-3] Apc[Q8] Axn[S044230] triple mutant clone cells generated in the medullar region of third instar larval brains sometimes segregate from their neighbours to form cysts. When clones are induced in the medullar neurons the axons extend correctly to the medullar neuropil.
The hyperplasia seen in Axn[S044230] intestinal stem cell clones in the adult midgut is completely suppressed if they are also expressing pan[ΔN.Scer\UAS] under the control of Scer\GAL4[tub].
Expression of Apc2[Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP] under the control of Scer\GAL4[da.G32] has no effect on the ventral denticle belt phenotype of the germ-line and zygotic Axn[S044230]-mutation. Expression of Apc2[Scer\UAS.T:Src64B,T:Zzzz\FLAG] under the control of Scer\GAL4[da.G32] has no effect on the ventral denticle belt phenotype of the germ-line and zygotic Axn[S044230]-mutants. Triple mutants for Axn[S044230], Apc[Q8] and Apc2[d40] have naked ventral embryonic epidermis. The ventral denticle belt phenotype of Axn[S044230], Apc[Q8], Apc2[d40] triple mutants is suppressed by expression of Axn[Scer\UAS.cHa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[da.G32]. Expression of Axn[Scer\UAS.T:Src64B,T:Zzzz\FLAG] under the control of Scer\GAL4[da.G32] has no effect on the ventral denticle belt phenotype of Axn[S044230], Apc[Q8], Apc2[d40] triple mutants. Expression of Apc2[Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP] under the control of Scer\GAL4[da.G32] has no effect on the ventral denticle belt phenotype of Axn[S044230], Apc[Q8], Apc2[d40] triple mutants. Expression of Apc2[Scer\UAS.T:Src64B,T:Zzzz\FLAG] under the control of Scer\GAL4[da.G32] has no effect on the ventral denticle belt phenotype of Axn[S044230], Apc[Q8], Apc2[d40] triple mutants.
The Scer\GAL4[vg.PU]-driven gskt[Scer\UAS.cKa]-overexpression phenotype is suppressed by Axn[S044230]/+ in the wing.
The loss of segmentation and lack of smooth cuticle due to wgl-17/wgl-17 is partially maternally suppressed by AxnS044230/AxnS044230. If these embryos are also zygotically AxnS044230/AxnS044230, they produce cuticles consisting entirely of smooth cuticle (apart from the T1 beard), just as they would if they were wild-type for wg. The denticle belts formed in sggM11; armF1α maternal/zygotic double mutant embryos are largely suppressed by AxnS044230/AxnS044230, leaving mainly naked cuticle without much sign of periodic character.

Expression of Axn[M2.Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP] under the control of Scer\GAL4[arm.PS] fully restores complete and normal denticle belts in only 59% of Axn[S044230] mutant embryos. Expression of Axn[M4.Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP]under the control of Scer\GAL4[arm.PS] fully restores complete and normal denticle belts in only 36% of Axn[S044230] mutant embryos. Expression of Axn[M3.Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP] under the control of Scer\GAL4[Antp.PU] restores complete and normal denticle belts in only 10% of Axn[S044230] mutant embryos. Expression of Axn[Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP] under the control of Scer\GAL4[Antp.PU] rescues the denticle phenotype in 32% of Axn[S044230] mutant embryos.
Homozygous Axn[S044230] germ-line clone-derived embryos expressing Axn[Scer\UAS.cHa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[da.G32] show supernumerary denticles in the ventral embryonic epidermis. Expression of Axn[Scer\UAS.T:Src64B,T:Zzzz\FLAG] under the control of Scer\GAL4[da.G32] can restore ventral denticle belt patterning to some extent of homozygous Axn[S044230] germ-line clone-derived embryos.
