| Nature of the lesion | Statement Reference eyD1Da encodes a peptide truncated at amino acid 682. 37bp deletion (from position 2051 to 2080) is replaced by 5bp (GTCGG) in exon 9. This results in a frameshift and premature translation termination at position 2170. The predicted protein produced is 682 amino acids with the last 29 being unrelated to wild-type ey sequence. | ||

Detailed Description
| |||
Statement Reference ey[D1Da]/ey[JD] mutant flies are smaller in size than wild-type. Wing size is reduced by approximately 10%, and the average weight of mutant flies is between 66-68% of wild-type body weight.
In ey[D1Da]/ey[JD] mutant brains, the morphology of the insulin producing cells (IPCs) is abnormal. Clustering of the IPC somata is disrupted in mutants, with disorganisation of the IPC cluster and reduced cell size. Overgrowth of IPC neurites along the dorsal-most periphery of the brain is frequently observed. The IPC axonal projections exhibit morphological defects. Proximal to the somata, the median bundle is thinner than in controls. Further distal, the median bundle displays a prominent defasciculation phenotype in which axons defasciculate from the median bundle as they project ventrally. Homozygotes have reduced eyes. The ellipsoid body of the adult brain is disrupted. Homozygotes show 13% lethality. eyD1Da/Df(4)J2 flies show 29% lethality.
Eyes are reduced in size in homozygotes; 14% have eyes that are 0-25%
of wild-type size, 14% have eyes that are 25-50% of wild-type size,
72% have eyes that are 50-75% of wild-type size and 0% have eyes that
are 75-100% of wild-type size.
Homozygous adults have smaller brains than normal, with defects in
the optic lobes, the central complex and the mushroom bodies. In the
optic lobe, the lamina is often smaller and flatter than normal, the
medulla is reduced in size and mispositioned, the medulla cortex is
severely underdeveloped and the serpentine layer (which separates the
distal and proximal part of the medulla) is disorganised. The lobula
and lobula plate are reduced in size, the internal chiasm is abnormal
and ectopic fibre bundles which appear to originate directly from the
lamina are seen in the lobula/lobula plate complex. Fusion of the
optic lobe with the central brain is occasionally seen. The mushroom
body lobes are generally not recognisable in homozygous flies, while
peduncles are seen in most brains, but they are greatly reduced in
diameter. The calyces of the mushroom bodies are reduced in size.
In the central complex, the ellipsoid body appears to be fused to
the fan-shaped body and both these neuropils are not well separated
from the surrounding protocerebral neuropil. The protocerebral bridge
is disintegrated into several chunks of neuropil. The total volume
of the central complex is almost unchanged compared to wild type.
Abnormal neuronal projections are seen in the ellipsoid and fan-shaped
bodies.
Homozygous flies are extremely reluctant to walk, both in "Buridan's
paradigm" and a stepping analyser experiment.
Eyes are reduced in size in eyD1Da/Df(4)J2 flies; 31% have eyes
that are 0-25% of wild-type size, 25% have eyes that are 25-50% of
wild-type size, 43% have eyes that are 50-75% of wild-type size and
1% have eyes that are 75-100% of wild-type size.
eyD1Da/Df(4)J2 flies show severe mushroom body and central complex
defects.
100% of ey2/eyD1Da flies have eyes which are 75-100% of wild-type
size and they have no overt defects in the mushroom body or central
complex.
89% of eyR/eyD1Da flies have eyes which are 75-100% of wild-type
size, 9% have eyes that are 50-75% of wild-type size, 1% have eyes
that are 25-50% of wild-type size and 1% have eyes that are 0-25% of
wild-type size. The flies have no overt defects in the mushroom body
or central complex.
Eyes are reduced in size in eyD1Da/eyJ5.71 flies; 43% have
eyes that are 0-25% of wild-type size, 14% have eyes that are 25-50%
of wild-type size, 38% have eyes that are 50-75% of wild-type size
and 5% have eyes that are 75-100% of wild-type size.
eyD1Da/eyJ5.71 flies show severe mushroom body and central
complex defects. The number of mushroom body neurons and the size of the mushroom body neuropil is reduced in homozygous adults. | |||
