UASp regulatory sequences drive expression of the Cele\unc-104 motor domain (amino acids 1-389) along with a leucine zipper for dimerization, fused to the mutated C-terminus of Khc (amino acids 905-975; with R914A, K915A, R916A and Q918A mutations in the microtubule binding site). The construct is tagged with mTagBFP2 at the C-terminal.
Scer\GAL4elav.PLu/Cele\unc-104::KhcLZ.mutA.UASp.mTagBFP2 is a non-suppressor of abnormal neuroanatomy | third instar larval stage phenotype of KhcKO.mutA
Cele\unc-104::KhcLZ.mutA.UASp.mTagBFP2, Scer\GAL4VP16.nanos.UTR is a non-suppressor of oocyte phenotype of KhcGL00330, Scer\GAL4VP16.nanos.UTR
Scer\GAL4elav.PLu/Cele\unc-104::KhcLZ.mutA.UASp.mTagBFP2 is a non-suppressor of neuron | third instar larval stage phenotype of KhcKO.mutA
Scer\GAL4elav.PLu/Cele\unc-104::KhcLZ.mutA.UASp.mTagBFP2 is a non-suppressor of axon | third instar larval stage phenotype of KhcKO.mutA
Scer\GAL4elav.PLu/Cele\unc-104::KhcLZ.mutA.UASp.mTagBFP2 is a non-suppressor of sensory neuron | third instar larval stage phenotype of KhcKO.mutA
Scer\GAL4elav.PLu/Cele\unc-104::KhcLZ.mutA.UASp.mTagBFP2 is a non-suppressor of embryonic/larval optic stalk | third instar larval stage phenotype of KhcKO.mutA
The reduced velocity of ooplasmic streaming characteristic for oocytes expressing KhcGL00330 under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16 cannot be rescued by co-expression of Cele\unc-104::KhcLZ.mutA.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Equa\eqFP578-TagBFP2.
The reduced axon length observed in cultured neurons from KhcKO.mutA mutant larvae as well as the axon outgrowth and patterning of photoreceptor neurons in KhcKO.mutA larval brains cannot be rescued by expression of Cele\unc-104::KhcLZ.mutA.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Equa\eqFP578-TagBFP2 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu in the mutant background.
