Expression of krzScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4E(spl)m6-BFM.PF leads to increased numbers of abdominal lateral adult muscle precursor cells in third instar larvae, as compared to controls.
krzS047819 homozygous adults which have been rescued from lethality by expression of krzScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.PB show a reduced initial activity phase (during the first minute) in an open field arena compared to control flies. The spontaneous locomotor activity is not significantly different from control flies from the second minute onwards (the assay was carried out for 10 minutes).
There are no significant differences in spontaneous activity between krzS047819 homozygous adults which have been rescued from lethality by expression of krzScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.PB and control flies measured in the dark over a period of days.
krzS047819 homozygous adults which have been rescued from lethality by expression of krzScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.PB fail to show a robust increase in activity after mechanical stimulation, in contrast to control flies.
Scer\GAL4E(spl)m6-BFM.PF, krzUAS.cRa has increased cell number | third instar larval stage phenotype, suppressible by dxUAS.cMa/Scer\GAL4E(spl)m6-BFM.PF
krzUAS.cRa/Scer\GAL4E(spl)m6-BFM.PF is a suppressor of increased cell number | third instar larval stage phenotype of Scer\GAL4E(spl)m6-BFM.PF, dxUAS.cMa
Scer\GAL4E(spl)m6-BFM.PF, krzUAS.cRa has abdominal lateral adult muscle precursor cell | third instar larval stage phenotype, suppressible by dxUAS.cMa/Scer\GAL4E(spl)m6-BFM.PF
krzUAS.cRa/Scer\GAL4E(spl)m6-BFM.PF is a suppressor of abdominal lateral adult muscle precursor cell | third instar larval stage phenotype of Scer\GAL4E(spl)m6-BFM.PF, dxUAS.cMa
Co-expression of dxScer\UAS.cMa and krzScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4E(spl)m6-BFM.PF suppresses the increased number of abdominal lateral adult muscle precursor cells in third instar larvae observed upon expression of either dxScer\UAS.cMa or krzScer\UAS.cRa alone.
Co-expression of krzScer\UAS.cRa and InRR418P.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4E(spl)m6-BFM.PF results in increased numbers of abdominal lateral adult muscle precursor cells present in third instar larvae, as compared to controls.
Scer\GAL4elav-C155/krzUAS.cRa partially rescues krzS047819
Scer\GAL4Kr.PM/krzUAS.cRa fails to rescue krzS047819
Expression of krzScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.PB using heat shock is sufficient to rescue some of the krzS047819 mutant animals at each larval instar. Rescue of lethality becomes significantly more efficient at older stages. Expression of krzScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4Kr.PM does not rescue the lethality of krzS047819 animals. Expression of krzScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 rescues the lethality of krzS047819 animals. Approximately 1/3 of the rescued animals fail to expand their wings after eclosion. Melanotic tumours are visible in the abdomens of most of the rescued animals.
