Dataset

A set of transgenic insertion stocks derived by TE mobilization using the 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 (FBrf0090768). 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.

Statement
Reference
Over-expressing jumu using the UAS sequences in jumu[GE27806] under the control of Scer\GAL4[hs.PU] rescues the sensitivity to fungal infection seen in this line.
Homozygous jumu[GE27806] mutant adults are more sensitive to fungal infection (B. bassiana) than wild type controls. This increase in sensitivity is seen following both natural infection and infection through septic injury. No reduction in survival is seen following wounding or in response to infection with Gram-negative bacteria (Ecc-15). A fall in survival rate is seen in response to the Gram-positive bacteria S. aureus, but not M. luteus. An increased number of hemocytes are seen in jumu[GE27806] mutants compared to wild type but overall hemocyte uptake of B. bassiana fungal spores is similar to wild type. Defects are also seen in the phagocytic uptake of S. aureus but not E. coli. An increased number of plasmatocytes is seen in homozygous jumu[GE27806] third instar larvae. The number of crystal cells is similar to wild type and, as in wild type, strong melanisation occurs in response to injury.
