Flies carrying axedMI13270 mutant somatic clones show defective injury-induced axon degeneration: severed axons in sensory neurons in the adult wing remain intact for a full week after an axotomy, instead of being cleared away.
axedMI13270 is rescued by Scer\GAL4VGlut1-OK371/axedUAS.long
axedMI13270 is partially rescued by Scer\GAL4VGlut1-OK371/axedΔBTB.UAS
axedMI13270 is partially rescued by axedΔBACK.UAS/Scer\GAL4VGlut1-OK371
axedMI13270 is not rescued by axedΔCterm.UAS/Scer\GAL4VGlut1-OK371
The defective injury-induced axon degeneration observed in flies carrying axedMI13270 mutant neural clones (severed axons in sensory neurons in the adult wing remain intact following an axotomy, instead of being cleared away) can be rescued by clonal Scer\GAL4VGlut-OK371-driven expression of any of the following: axedScer\UAS.long, axedΔBTB.Scer\UAS, axedΔBACK.Scer\UAS or axedΔCterm.Scer\UAS.
