Nature of the lesion
Statement
Reference
Generated by ends-out targeting of the ST6Gal locus, resulting in a deletion that removes most of the coding sequence. The design of the targeting construct used to generate this allele was aimed at creating a mutant allele with Avic\GFP expression driven by the ST6Gal promoter (by inserting the Avic\GFP coding sequence), however the Avic\GFP coding sequence was damaged by a short insertion of approximately 30bp during the targeting event, and there is no Avic\GFP expression in the mutant.

Statement
Reference
Mutant larvae have a decreased number of muscle synaptic branches and boutons at the neuromuscular junction of the dorsal abdominal muscle 1 (which is innervated by motor neuron MN1-Ib).

Comments
ST6Gal[t8] rescues the locomotor defects of ST6Gal[S23] larvae and rescues the shortened longevity, bang sensitivity and temperature sensitive paralytic phenotype of ST6Gal[S23] adults. The reduced number of boutons at the neuromuscular junction of dorsal abdominal muscle 1 which is seen in ST6Gal[S23] larvae is partially rescued by ST6Gal[t8].
