Dataset

A set of transgenic insertion stocks derived by TE mobilization using the P-element construct P{EPgy2}; created and vetted by the Gene Disruption Project (GDP). The P{EPgy2} construct carries two visible markers, the mini-white marker w[+mC] and the mini-yellow marker y[+mDint2], and Scer\UAS binding sites for the Scer\GAL4 transcriptional regulator. 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.
Additional P{EPgy2} insertion lines were generated, mapped, and assessed for inclusion in the Gene Disruption Project collection; flanking sequence data were submitted to GenBank.

Statement
Reference
Heterozygotes show defects in mitochondrial morphology in the indirect flight muscles, with smaller than normal mitochondria being seen between the muscle fibers.
The downturned wing and crushed thorax phenotypes but not the flightless phenotype of Pink1[B9] mutant flies is significantly suppressed by opa1-like[EY09863]/+. The swollen mitochondria phenotype seen in dopaminergic neurons of Pink1[B9] mutants is significantly rescued by opa1-like[EY09863]/+.
No effect on mitochondrial network morphology in the dorsolateral protocerebral posterior DA (dopaminergic) neuron cluster is seen in opa1-like[EY09863]/+ animals.
The abnormal wing posture phenotype and the abnormal morphology of the indirect flight muscles and their mitochondria which is seen in Pink1[B9] flies is suppressed by opa1-like[EY09863]/+. The mitochondrial aggregation phenotype seen in the dorsolateral protocerebral posterior DA (dopaminergic) neuron cluster in Pink1[B9] animals is suppressed by opa1-like[EY09863]/+. The mitochondrial aggregation phenotype seen in the dorsolateral protocerebral posterior DA (dopaminergic) neuron cluster in animals expressing Pink1[Scer\UAS.cYa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[ple.PF] is not modified by opa1-like[EY09863]/+.
opa1-likeEY09863 mitotic clones in the male germline (i.e. mutant spermatids) exhibit irregularly-shaped nebenkerns, composed of many individual mitochondria that have coalesced beside the nucleus, but have failed to fuse.
