Expression of ct[Scer\UAS.cPa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[221] results in an increase in dendrite complexity and in the formation of spiked protrusions in class I vpda neurons.
Expression of ct[Scer\UAS.cPa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[salm-459.2] induces an ectopic actin cable at the interface of the ct expressing and ct non-expressing cells.
Expression of ct[Scer\UAS.cPa] in the mds neurons under the control of Scer\GAL4[clh201] increases dendritic branching and causes crawling defets.
Ectopic expression of ct[Scer\UAS.cPa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[221] significantly increases the number of dendrite termini by 291%, total arbor length by 106%, and arbor area by 35% over wild-type levels. Expression of ct[Scer\UAS.cPa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[ppk.PG] in class IV neurons results in the formation of only a small number of filopodia/spikes.
In ct[Scer\UAS.cPa]; Scer\GAL4[GH146] animals there is a medial shift in targeting of both antero-dorsal (adPN) and lateral (lPN) projection neuron dendrites within the antennal lobe. adPN dendrites in these animals avoid antennal glomeruli DM1 and DM2. DL1 adPN have an abnormally diffuse dendritic arbour which targets the medial part of DL1 and adjacent glomeruli.
Expression of ctScer\UAS.cPa under the control of Scer\GAL4C96 disrupts wing margin bristle development.
Mis-expression of ctScer\UAS.cPa, in clones under the regulation of Scer\GAL4Scer\FRT.Rnor\CD2.Act5C during oogenesis does not direct follicle cells into either the polar-cell fate or the stalk-cell fate; instead, they appear to maintain an immature main-body follicle-cell fate. Continuous expression of ctScer\UAS.cPa under the regulation of Scer\GAL4Scer\FRT.Rnor\CD2.Act5C during mid-oogenesis causes the follicle cells to be more densely distributed and their nuclei to be slightly smaller than those of the wild-type.
Expression of ctScer\UAS.cPa in vpda neurons, under the control of Scer\GAL4221, increases the dendritic growth and branching of these neurons.
Expression of ctScer\UAS.cPa in ddaE neurons, under the control of Scer\GAL4109(2)80 and Scer\GAL4IG1-2, induces dendritic overgrowth and overbranching.
When ctScer\UAS.cPa is driven by Scer\GAL4221 a completely penetrant acquisition of exuberant short dendritic branches is seen in the vpda neuron. Ectopic branching is apparent by the first instar stage and persists throughout larval development. These terminal branches are highly dynamic. When ctScer\UAS.cPa is driven by Scer\GAL4109(2)80 an increase in dendritic branches is seen in ddaB neurons. When ctScer\UAS.cPa is driven by Scer\GAL4477 an decrease in dendritic branches is seen in ddaC neurons, significantly shorter terminals with both spiked and curved morphologies are seen.

Expression of ct[Scer\UAS.cPa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[221] in a sn[36a] background in class I vpda neurons results in an expansion of the dendrite tree. In addition, the formation of ectopic spiked protrusions is reduced by more than 40% compared to the expression of ct[Scer\UAS.cPa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[221] in a wild-type background.
Expression of ct[Scer\UAS.cPa] almost completely suppresses the ectopic eye phenotype seen in adult flies expressing ey[Scer\UAS.cHa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[dpp.blk1]. The photoreceptor induction seen in the wing discs is also suppressed.
Ectopic expression of Rac1[Scer\UAS.cLa] along with ct[Scer\UAS.cPa] in class I neurons under the control of Scer\GAL4[221] leads to the formation of an arbor with many filpodia/spikes, which shows a significant enhancement of branching as compared to either Rac1[Scer\UAS.cLa] or ct[Scer\UAS.cPa] expression alone. Co-expression of kn[Scer\UAS.cMa] and ct[Scer\UAS.cPa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[221] increases the number of dendritic branching points to 409% of wild-type. Similarly, the total length is increased by 130% and the arbor area by 89%. Expression of ct[Scer\UAS.cPa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[ppk.PG] in class IV neurons in a kn[1]/kn[KN2] results in the formation of many additional filpodia/spikes that closely resemble those of class III neurons. The overall level of branching in class IV neuron dendritic arbors appears similar to those of class III neurons.
In acj6[6] homozygous somatic clones in animals carrying ct[Scer\UAS.cPa]; Scer\GAL4[GH146], DL1 adPN have diffuse dendrites which fail to innervate antennal lobe glomerulus DL1 and instead occupy the medial to dorso-medial antennal lobe: typically VM2, DM6 and DC1.
Coexpression of ctScer\UAS.cPa and abScer\UAS.cBa, under the control of Scer\GAL4221, does not suppress the increased dendritic branching of vpda neurons, seen when ctScer\UAS.cPa is expressed, but did partially rescue the total dendritic length phenotype.
Coexpression of ctScer\UAS.cPa with abScer\UAS.S.cSa, under the control of Scer\GAL4109(2)80 and Scer\GAL4IG1-2, partially suppresses the reduction of field size and terminal number of ddA neurons seen when abScer\UAS.L.cSa is expressed alone. This coexpression also leads to a partial suppression of the dendritic overgrowth and overbranching of ddaE neurons, seen when ctScer\UAS.cPa is expressed under the control of Scer\GAL4109(2)80 and Scer\GAL4IG1-2.

ct[Scer\UAS.cPa]; Scer\GAL4[GH146] completely rescues the Targeting of DMA, DM2 and VA5 antennal glomeruli by lateral projection neurons (lPN) in ct[db3] or ct[C145] homozygous clones, but fails to rescue the decrease in vPN cell number and only partially rescues ventral projection neuron (vPN) Targeting of VA1lm but not of DA1.
