hide Detailed Description
Statement
Reference
Homozygous and mahj[1]/Df(2R)XE-2900 animals develop more slowly than normal. Homozygous larvae do not have any detectable morphological defects. Analysis of homozygous clones in the wing disc shows that 72 hours after clone induction, both homozygous and wild-type sibling clones are readily detected. However, at 96 hours after clone induction, the homozygous clones are smaller than the sibling clones, and by 120 hours after clone induction, most of the homozygous clones have disappeared from the wing disc epithelium. Homozygous cells adjacent to wild type or heterozygous cells frequently undergo apoptosis, whereas homozygous cells that are not adjacent to wild type or heterozygous cells rarely undergo apoptosis. The majority of apoptotic cells are basally extruded from the disc epithelium, but some remain within the epithelial layer. Basally extruded homozygous cells which are not apoptotic are also sometimes seen.

Statement
Reference
Expression of puc[Scer\UAS.cMa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[tub.PU] strongly suppresses the apoptosis that is seen in mahj[1] clones in the wing disc. Basal extrusion of mutant cells is not fully blocked in these discs. Expression of l(2)gl[Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC] under the control of Scer\GAL4[tub.PU] does not affect the phenotype of mahj[1] clones in the wing disc; the cells undergo apoptosis and are basally extruded.

Statement
Reference
Expression of BacA\p35[Scer\UAS.cHa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[tub.PU] strongly suppresses the apoptosis that is seen in mahj[1] clones in the wing disc. Basal extrusion of mutant cells is not fully blocked in these discs.
