Detailed Description

Reference

Embryos of the maternal genotype Fsnf06595/Df(2R)Exel7124 have nearly wild-type viability.

Introducing Fsnf06595/+ or homozygous Fsnf06595 into the maternal Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16>FsnScer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 overexpression background results in some loss of primordial germ cells compared with wild-type.

Embryos of homozygous maternal Fsnf06595 do not form extra primordial germ cells compared to wild-type.

The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) of homozygous and Fsnf06595/Df(2R)Exel7124 larvae shows dramatic synaptic terminal overgrowth.

Fsnf06595/Df(2R)Exel7124 mutant larvae show an almost four-fold increase in both bouton number and number of branch points compared to wild type (assayed at the NMJ of the MN4-Ib motorneuron onto muscle 4). The synaptic span (length of type I synapse divided by the length of muscle) is also increased from 18% in wild type to 30% in the Fsnf06595/Df(2R)Exel7124 mutant larvae.

Homozygous larvae show an increase in bouton number, branch point number and synaptic span at the NMJ.

Fsnf06595/Df(2R)Exel7124 mutant larvae show a reduction in evoked release at the neuromuscular junction; there is a 70% reduction in the excitatory junctional potential (EJP) amplitude compared to wild type, due to a 66% decrease in quantal content. Quantal size (mEJP amplitude) is unchanged in the mutant larvae.

hiwND51 Fsnf06595 double mutant larvae have dramatically overgrown synapses at the neuromuscular junction, with a significant increase in the number of boutons compared to the hiwND51 single mutant and an enhancement of synaptic branching.

The synaptic terminal overgrowth phenotype seen at the neuromuscular junction is not significantly different in hiwND9 Fsnf06595 double mutant larvae compared to hiwND9 single mutant larvae.

The synaptic overgrowth phenotypes seen at the neuromuscular junction in Fsnf06595/Df(2R)Exel7124 larvae (increased bouton number, increased number of branch points and increased synaptic span) are completely suppressed by wnd3.
