Neuroblasts in aurB1689/aurB2A43 and aurB35.33/aurB1689 transheterozygous third instar larval brains show increased time in mitosis

aurB1689 is a hypomorphic mutation, leading to defects in early germ-cell development. Mutant egg chambers consist of 8 germline cells instead of 16 and the oocyte is kinked to only 3 nurse cells by 3 ring canals instead of 4, suggesting that the mutant egg chambers have gone through 3 divisions instead of 4.

aurB1689 mutants exhibit two-cell cysts linked by a thin thread of fusome, indicating that an abscission is about to be completed. These threads of fusome are never seen in wild-type cysts. Eight cell cysts are found in pairs at a frequency three times higher than expected, suggesting that each pair of eight cell cysts is derived from a single precursor.

aurB1689 oocytes exhibit only one focus for each pair of centromeres and and mono-orientation of homologous chromosomes (in some cases) while they exhibit bipolar spindles and chromosome movements as compared to controls

Additional Comments
Genetic Interactions
Statement
Reference

Removal of one copy of bam, through a bamΔ86/+ strongly suppresses the aurB1689 phenotype (from 17% to 4% of eight cell cysts), indicating that the phenotype is caused by the reduction of aurB activity in the cyst and not in the germline stem cell.

Expression of CycB5A.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Avic\GFP under the control of Scer\GAL4bam.T:Hsim\VP16 in aurB1689 mutant cysts induces a strong reduction in the number of eight-cell cysts from 14.5% to 3.5% of eight-cell cysts.

Comments

Expression of aurBScer\UAS.P\T.T:Ivir\HA1 under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16 rescues the aurB1689 mutant egg chambers that display only 8 cells.
