A small deletion results in a frame-shift and premature termination codon within PRL-1 (I33*).
Four base deletion leads to a frameshift and early translation termination after the addition of three novel amino acids.
PRL-12/PRL-14 posterior dorsocentral bristle neurons do not show striking differences in synapse ultrastructure, as compared to controls.
PRL-14 homozygous show a significantly smaller ventral nerve cord, as compared to controls.
Posterior dorsocentral bristle neurons of individuals that are both PRL-12/PRL-14 transheterozygous and express PRL-1UAS.cPa under the control of Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 do not show significant projection defects (terminal arbor territory or number of synapses/ Syt1-positive puncta) in the contralateral branch, as compared to controls.
