FlyBase curator comment: 'familial nephrotic syndrome' subtype 'nephrotic syndrome type 9' is associated with gene COQ8B.
Expression of Coq8VDRC.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4Ugt36A1.PK leads to reduced pericardial nephrocyte function (reduction in the amount of secreted red fluorescent proteins accumulated in nephrocytes) in second instar larvae when compared to controls.
