domeG0441 heterozygotes do not show significant changes in intestinal stem cell proliferation (phospho-H3 staining) in the adult midgut, as compared to controls.
Homozygous embryos have a posterior spiracle defect. Embryos derived from females containing homozygous germ-line clones die with segmentation defects. Both paternally rescued and non-rescued embryos show a consistent deletion of the 5th abdominal segment and the posterior midventral part of the 4th abdominal segment. Additional defects in the thoracic segments and head and tail regions are seen in paternally non-rescued embryos. Paternally rescued embryos derived from females containing homozygous germ-line clones form a defective tracheal system with several disruptions in the main trunk and many branches.
Mosaic egg chambers in which the border cells are domeG0441 show a lack of or defective border cell migration. In some mosaic egg chambers the border cell clusters are not formed or contain less cells than normal. In mosaic border cell clusters, the wild-type cells usually migrate normally or ahead of the domeG0441 cells.
Lethality occurs during the embryonic stage and the first larval instar.
The shape of the posterior spiracles is affected in mutants.
domeG0441/dome[+] is a suppressor of increased occurrence of cell division | adult stage phenotype of Rnf14617
domeG0441/dome[+] is a suppressor of visible phenotype of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF, upd1UAS.cCa
domeG0441 has embryonic/larval posterior spiracle phenotype, suppressible by hopTum
domeG0441/dome[+] is a suppressor of adult midgut epithelium phenotype of Rnf14617
domeG0441/dome[+] is a suppressor of intestinal stem cell | adult stage phenotype of Rnf14617
domeG0441/dome[+] is a suppressor of eye phenotype of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF, upd1UAS.cCa
domeG0441/dome[+] is a suppressor of ommatidium | increased number phenotype of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF, upd1UAS.cCa
The extra number of ommatidia caused by expression of upd1Scer\UAS.cCa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF is partially suppressed by domeG0441/+; the flies have an average of 813 +/- 10 ommatidia.
P{lacW} not verified as causing the lethality.
Mobilisation of the P-element reverts both the lethality and posterior spiracle phenotype.
