Compared with wild-type, tracheal tube diameter appears reduced in Sar105712 mutant embryos.
Transepithelial barrier function in the trachea is normal in mutant embryos.
Homozygous stage 17 embryos show a "broken hearted" phenotype; the pericardial cells are dissociated from cardioblasts in the dorsal vessel.
sar105712 mutants have major defects in cuticular development; the larval cuticles are smaller (on average only 40-50% the length of wild-type) and weaker than the cuticles of their wild-type siblings, the mouthparts and filzkorper are poorly formed, and sar105712 mutants frequently have large holes in the dorsal cuticle. In addition, there appears to be a general defect in patterning of the cuticle, with dorsal and ventral structures appearing more lateralized. The ventral cuticle exhibits a loss of denticles and the denticles that are present have a very light pigmentation, more consistent with the pigmentation found in more lateral denticles of wild-type larvae. The dorsal surfaces of the mutant larvae consist of thin hairs and naked cuticle, an arrangement more typical of dorsal-lateral reiogns of wild-type cuticles.
Df(3R)ED6085/Sar105712 has lethal phenotype, suppressible by P{FlyFos-045459}
Sar1[+]/Sar105712 is an enhancer of visible | adult stage phenotype of dpyD
Sar1[+]/Sar105712 is an enhancer of decreased size | adult stage phenotype of dpyD
Sar1[+]/Sar105712, Yif1doc-1 has partially lethal - majority live phenotype
The lethality of sar105712/Df(3R)ED6085 animals is rescued if they are carrying the P{FlyFos-045685} construct (which contains D. pseudoobscura pseudoobscura fosmid sequence that includes the region orthologous to sar1); a few adults survivors are recovered, and they can fly.
