    Description

    FlyBase curator comment: this entry is used to capture phenotypic information when the particular allele (or allele combination) used by the author could not be determined but the context of the experiment suggests that the phenotype being described is some kind of loss of function.

    synaptic vesicle & eye photoreceptor cell | somatic clone

    Detailed Description
    Statement
    Reference

    When eye photoreceptor cells are selectively made homozygous for n-sybunspecified (using Scer\FLP1ey.3.5.hs; Scer\FRT n-sybunspecified/Scer\FRT 'cell-lethal'), their terminals in the lamina have a higher density of vesicles than to wild-type. In addition the number of capitate projections (dynamically active invaginations of the surrounding epithelial glia associated with vesicle endocytosis) is reduced. The numbers of active zones and mitochondria per terminal are unaltered in mutant photoreceptor cells.

    Mutant embryos have aerated tracheae at 21-24 hours after egg laying but do not move spontaneously within the vitelline membrane. If the membrane is torn with a sharp needle, the embryos show wiggly movements; segmental muscles at various positions contract sporadically for several minutes until the embryos eventually become placid.
