Detailed Description
| |||
Statement Reference foxo[21] mutant embryos do not exhibit aberrant cell fate specification or axon guidance defects. foxo[21] mutant third instar larvae are indistinguishable from wild-type with respect to overall body size and muscle area and display no appreciable change in bouton number. However, the area of individual type 1b boutons is significantly increased. In addition, there is an increase in the number of closed, tightly bundled futsch-positive microtubule loops at neuromuscular junction 6/7.
foxo[21] mutant neuromuscular junctions display enhanced microtubule stability compared to controls.
foxo[21] mutants display impaired synaptic vesicle dynamics (assayed through FM 1-43 dye). The shift to a more acidic pH of fecal excreta which is seen in wild-type flies in response to a low-calorie diet does not occur in foxo[21]/Df(3R)Exel8159 flies. foxo[21]/foxo[25] mutants rapidly become arrythmic in the presence of low levels of paraquat (0.5-1mM), while wild-type flies retain their rhythms for a few weeks. Phototaxis is not affected by paraquat treatment in these mutants.
foxo[21]/foxo[25] mutant flies are hypersensitive to oxidative stress.
30 day old foxo[21]/foxo[25] mutant flies show weak rhythms simliar to those seen in response to paraquat in young flies. foxoBG01018/foxo21 flies display a 4.8% improvement in medial survival following M.marinum infection in comparison to wild-type flies - 174 hours vs. 166 hours. foxo21/foxo25 transheterozygotes survive even longer - 190 hours following infection. The number of bacteria recorded in these flies is not significantly different from wild-type flies. Homozygous mutant animals do not exhibit a a detectable growth phenotype. Shows no obvious phenotype under normal culturing conditions, though close inspection reveals the wing size is slightly reduced. Clonal analysis in the head capsule reveals no effect on growth. Clonal analysis reveals no difference of cell size in the developing eye between mutant and wild type. No significant difference between body weight of mutant and wild type flies is detectable. When placed on hydrogen-peroxide-containing food mutant flies display significantly reduced survival time compared to control flies. A similar effect occurs in response to paraquat feeding. | |||

Genetic Interactions

Statement Reference The defect in climbing ability and reduction in lifespan seen in flies expressing for[P1.Scer\UAS] under the control of Scer\GAL4[elav.Switch.PO] in the presence of RU486 is partially suppressed by foxo[21]/+. A futsch[K68]/+ background suppresses the increase in type 1b bouton area observed in foxo[21] homozygotes. Furthermore, this background dominantly suppresses the elevated number of microtubule loops present in foxo[21] mutants.
A futsch[N94] background dominantly suppresses the elevated number of microtubule loops present in foxo[21] mutants.
A futsch[K68]/+ background suppresses the FM 1-43 loading defects found in foxo[21] mutant synapses. The eye phenotype resulting from the overexpression of cln3[Scer\UAS.cTa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[GMR.PF] is partially suppressed by foxo[21]/+. Overexpression of Thor[LL.Scer\UAS] under the control of Scer\GAL4[Mhc.PW] in a heterozygous foxo[21] mutant genetic background is sufficient to significantly extend longevity compared with wild type by increasing the median and maximum life span of flies. The lifespan of 14-3-3ε[j2B10]/+, foxo[21]/+ double heterozygous flies is similar to wild-type levels. Removal of both copies of foxo (foxo[25]/foxo[21]) is lethal in TORC[25-3] homozygotes.
TORC[Scer\UAS.cWa] over-expressing flies (driven by Scer\GAL4[GMR.PF]) in which foxo is reduced or eliminated though a foxo[25]/foxo[21] background still exhibit a rough eye phenotype. Ectopic expression of ThorScer\UAS.cTa, under the control of Scer\GAL4Act5C can completely suppress the sensitivity of foxo21/foxo25 flies to oxidative stress (median life-span of 56.8 hours, 39.7% survival rate after 60 hours exposure to 5% hydrogen peroxide). | |||
