hide Detailed Description
Statement

Expression of nosαTub84B.3'UTR.nos+2.Scer\UAS in the dorsal pouch epithelium, under the control of Scer\GAL4HD34A, causes lethality in 25% of flies.
Expression of nosαTub84B.3'UTR.nos+2.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL48-123 results in a reduction in the amount of high-order dendritic branches in class IV dendritic arborization neurons of third instar larvae, but the phenotype is significantly less severe than that seen when nosαTub84B.3'UTR.Scer\UAS is expressed under the control of Scer\GAL48-123.
100% of flies expressing nosαTub84B.3'UTR.nos+2.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF have rough eyes. These flies have black spots. 100% of flies expressing nosαTub84B.3'UTR.nos+2.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.2sev have rough eyes. Flies expressing nosαTub84B.3'UTR.nos+2.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu show 84% lethality. Flies expressing nosαTub84B.3'UTR.nos+2.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL41407 show 61% lethality. 24% of flies expressing nosαTub84B.3'UTR.nos+2.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.2sev show an "adolescent" phenotype; the wing expansion and body cuticle hardening that normally occurs shortly after eclosion fails to occur. The flies are fertile, but show reduced viability. A number of other Scer\GAL4 lines produce this "adolescent" phenotype in combination with nosαTub84B.3'UTR.nos+2.Scer\UAS, they are: Scer\GAL4sca-109-68 (23% penetrance), Scer\GAL4HD23A (33% penetrance), Scer\GAL4HD44A (24% penetrance) and Scer\GAL4Eh.2.4 (75% penetrance).
