Member of Large Scale Dataset(s)
Dataset

A set of transgenic insertion stocks derived by TE mobilization using the P-element construct P{EP}. The P{EP} construct construct carries a w[+mC] mini-white visible marker, Scer\UAS binding sites for the Scer\GAL4 transcriptional regulator, and bacterial sequences that allow plasmid rescue. The GAL4-UAS system allows regulated expression of genes proximate to the site of the insertion: genes properly oriented with respect to the Scer\UAS sequences can be conditionally expressed via transgene-derived Scer\GAL4 activity.
Insertion lines from this collection were mapped and assessed for inclusion in the Gene Disruption Project collection; flanking sequence data were submitted to GenBank.

Statement
Reference
Heterozygous embryos have distorted and broken longitudinal connectives. Homozygous embryos show increased distortion of the commissures and longitudinal connectives.
P{EP}Atg1[EP3348] heterozygous embryos have distorted and broken longitudinal connectives. P{EP}Atg1[EP3348] homozygous embryos show increased distortion of the commissures and longitudinal connectives.
Expression using Scer\GAL4[ey.PU] does not induce a rough eye phenotype.
About 30% of Atg1[EP3348] homozygous mutants develop into adults. No mitotic defects are evident in the larval brain and imaginal discs of mutant animals. Atg1[EP3348] mutant animals show marked defects in the induction of autophagy and autophagosome formation under conditions of starvation.
Defects in autophagosome formation in starved Atg1[EP3348] homozygous larvae are not rescued in a S6k[07084] or S6k[l-1] heterozygous background. However, eclosion rates are increased in these animals in a dose-dependent manner. Roughly 50% of Atg1[EP3348], S6k[07084]/+ eclose, increased to 70% in a Atg1[EP3348], S6k[l-1]/+ genetic background. Tor[k17004] homozygous animals in a heterozygous Atg1[EP3348] genetic background grow faster, and extend their developmental stage to mid/late third instar larval stage. Double homozygous animals survive to mid-late third instar larval stage. Lipid vesicle aggregation in the fat body of Tor[k17004] homozygous second/early third instar larvae is suppressed in a heterozygous Atg1[EP3348] genetic background. Tor[k17004] mutant larvae heterozygous for Atg1[EP3348] show a partially rescued cell and nuclear salivary gland size.
Mutants show disruption of autophagy.
