A TI{CRIMIC.TG4.1} DNA cassette has been inserted into CG5009, in a coding intron, and is predicted to gene trap all annotated transcripts of the gene. The TI{CRIMIC.TG4.1} cassette was inserted using the CRISPR/Cas9 technique together with a donor plasmid to drive homology directed repair. The sgRNA sequence used to target the gene was: ATGTACATGTAGGTCTGTCGGGG. The homology arms of the donor plasmid used were designed such that there is a small gap between the 3' end of the 5' arm and the 5' end of the 3' arm, thus the insertion of the TI{CRIMIC.TG4.1} cassette is predicted to be accompanied by a deletion of 5bp of genomic sequence flanking the insertion site.
ACOX1CR00998-TG4.1 homozygous adults exhibit progressive climbing defects when compared to controls.
In ACOX1CR00998-TG4.1 homozygous adults, the number of axons in wing nerves is decreased, many remaining axons are irregular in shape, and most of the wrapping glia are absent or highly aberrant in size and shape when compared to the controls.
ACOX1CR00998-TG4.1 homozygous adults exhibit a progressive loss of electroretinogram on- and off transients and a decrease in amplitude when compared to controls. Also ACOX1CR00998-TG4.1 flies raised in the dark exhibit neurodegeneration of the retina.
