Member of Large Scale Dataset(s)
Dataset

A set of mutant stocks derived by insertional mutagenesis using the P-element construct P{lacW}; most lines have a lethal or sterile phenotype. The P{lacW} construct carries a w[+mC] mini-white visible marker, Ecol\lacZ enhancer trap sequences, and bacterial sequences that allow plasmid rescue (FBrf0049800).
Insertion lines from this collection were assessed for inclusion in the Gene Disruption Project collection.

Statement
Reference
Fpps[k06103] heterozygous mutants do not display a degenerative nervous system phenotype, with only the occasional small vacuole forming in these mutants.
A Fpps[k06103] heterozygous background significantly suppresses the degenerative nervous sytem phenotype found in 5 day old SNF4Aγ[loe] mutants. These flies exhibit a reduction in the area of vacuoles in the optic system, from approximately 163 υm[2] to 25υm[2] in a Fpps[k06103]/+ background. There is a similar reduction in the number of vacuoles present, confirming an involvement of the isoprenoid pathway in the degenerative phenotype of SNF4Aγ[loe] flies.
The average number of crystal cells per embryo is reduced (to 10.5) in homozygous stage 13-14 embryos compared to wild type (36 +/- 2.2 cells on average).
Germ cell migration is severely defective in Fppsk06103; qmL14.4 double homozygous embryos. About 40% of Fppsk06103; Hmgcr01152 double homozygous embryoshave severe patterning defects. However, in the remaining 60% the mesoderm appears correctly patterned but germ cell migration is severely defective (on average 14 germ cells remain on the gut), an enhancement over the germ cell migration phenotype seen in either single mutant.
In embryos homozygous Fppsk06103, a small number of germ cells (4 on average) fail to migrate correctly toward the mesoderm and instead remain associated with the dorsal side of the posterior midgut. This phenotype is stronger in embryos both maternally and zygotically homozygous for Fppsk06103: 13 germ cells, on average, fail to migrate into the mesoderm.
