hide Detailed Description
Statement
Reference
Arkk11502/Df(2R)BSC49 and Arkk11502/ArkP803-Δ15 third instar larvae show gut melanisation not accompanied by tissue overgrowth or hemocyte encapsulation. Homozygous third instar larvae develop multiple black spots along the gut and sometimes in the salivary glands.
48% of Arkk11502 mutant flies exhibit extra macrochaetae on the scutellum. Arkk11502 mutants have one extra SOP cell in the scutellum region of the third instar wing disc. Analysis of the scutellum region of the pupal notum (24-30 h after pupal formation (APF)) shows that there is an extra neuron and thecogen present, which are derived from the extra SOP cell.
Unlike wild-type embyros UV irradition of Arkk11502 homozygous pre-gastrula embryos at 50 mJ/cm2 does not induce cell death.
Mutants show only slight cell death defects in the embryo and barely detectable defects in adults.
The outer morphology of homozygous larvae and flies appears normal, except for adult dorsal bristles; extra bristles are often seen on the scutellum. Abnormal ommatidia with one extra photoreceptor cell are often seen. The morphology of the pigment cell layer is disorganised compared to the regular pattern seen in wild-type flies. A significant decrease in apoptotic cells is seen in stage 11-12 homozygous embryos compared to wild type. The brain hemispheres of third instar larvae are larger than normal and contain a markedly decreased number of apoptotic cells.
Homozygous stage 12/1 embryos contain fewer apoptotic cells in the head region that wild-type embryos. The phenotype is highly penetrant but some variation is seen. Embryos often show defects in head involution and the brain appears larger than normal. Suppresses the eye phenotype caused by Dcp-1GMR.PS or Dcp-1N.GMR. A strong synergism in cell ablation is seen when Dcp-1GMR.PS and rprGMR.PW are coexpressed in the eye. This phenotype is not modified by Arkk11502.

Statement
Reference
The hatch rate of homozygous Arkk11502 embryos is not reduced if the embryos are injected with th dsRNA (produced by annealing thcIa and tha.cIa RNA).
The eye phenotype caused by expression of rprGMR.PW is significantly suppressed by Arkk11502. The eye phenotype caused by expression of WGMR.PG is not affected by Arkk11502.
