Q52term
repo64/+ mutants exhibit significantly impaired long term memory performance 24 hours after spaced training in an aversive olfactory association paradigm, as compared to controls; but do not show significantly decreased anesthesia-resistant memory performance 24 hours after massed training in an aversive olfactory association paradigm, as compared to controls.
The number of lateral glia is reduced in repo64 mutants, while those remaining are disorganised. Most peripheral glia are either missing or displaced and longitudinal glia are displaced toward the lateral edges of the ventral nerve cord.
In stage 16 repo64 homozygous embryos, the numbers of lateral glia are reduced and those that remain are disorganised, most peripheral glia are either missing or displaced and longitudinal glia are displaced towards the lateral edges of the ventral nerve cord.
Gliogenesis and axonogenesis are normal in mutant embryos up to stage 16. At stage 16 longitudinal glial cells are spatially disorganized and reduced in number. By stage 16, mutant embryos have slightly disorganized longitudinal axon fascicles.
repo64 is a suppressor of abnormal neuroanatomy phenotype of Scer\GAL4sca-T3, gcmUAS.cHa
repo64 is a suppressor of larval neuron phenotype of Scer\GAL4sca-T3, gcmUAS.cHa
Embryos expressing gcmScer\UAS.cHa under the control of Scer\GAL4sca-T3 show a dramatic restoration of elav-positive cells and neuronal development if they are also mutant for repo64.
repo64 is partially rescued by repoUAS.cLa/Scer\GAL4repo.PL
repoScer\UAS.cLa; Scer\GAL4repo.PL partially rescues the loss and disorganisation of glia seen in repo64 homozygous stage 16 embryos. Rescue is most apparent for longitudinal and peripheral glia.
