Expression of one copy of jingScer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF has no visible effects on ommatidial formation.

Expression of jingScer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu results in thinner longitudinal connectives than normal and reduced spacing between the anterior and posterior commissures.

Expression of jingScer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4sli.PS results in an increase in the number of midline glial cells compared to wild type, with an average of 12 glia per segment that are scattered laterally from the midline compared to 8 in wild-type embryos. The extra glia are still located dorsally to the ventral nerve cord. There is no cell death present in the glial population in these embryos, in contrast to the small apoptotic glia found surrounding the nerve cord in wild-type embryos. Commissural axons do not properly approach the midline in embryos expressing jingScer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4sli.PS and instead appear stalled along the longitudinal tracts. The extra glia present in these embryos appear to migrate towards the longitudinal tracts. Expression of jingScer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF results in flies with a rough eye phenotype, consisting of highly disorganised ommatidia and mechanosensory bristles in 45% of flies. In addition the number of ommatidia is reduced by 50% compared to wild type.

Expression of jingScer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4sim.P3.7 inhibits the formation of the preoral and postoral tritocerebral commissures in the embryonic brain. The circumesophageal longitudinal connectives sometimes do not extend properly and have large gaps.

When jingScer\UAS.cSa is driven by Scer\GAL4sim.P3.7, commissural and longitudinal axon formation is inhibited. When jingScer\UAS.cSa is driven by Scer\GAL4btl.PS, defects are seen in dorsal trunk fusion, as well as improper formation of the transverse connective, dorsal branch and visceral branch.

Co-expression of jingScer\UAS.cSa enhances the severity of the rough eye phenotype caused by expression of lapEP3060 under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF and in addition, loss of pigmentation in the eye is seen.

Co-expression of jingScer\UAS.cSa and XNPEP635 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu results in synergistic effects in the embryonic central nervous system; 65% of segments have no longitudinal connectives.

The increase in the number of midline glia per ventral nerve cord segment seen in embryos expressing jingScer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4sli.PS is not suppressed by spi1, but expression of jingScer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4sli.PS in a homozygous spi1 background does not induce extra midline glia and the number of midline glia per ventral nerve cord segment in these double mutant embryos is reduced compared to wild type and is similar to that seen in homozygous spi1 single mutants. The rough eye phenotype caused by expression of EgfrElp.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF is not enhanced by coexpression of jingScer\UAS.cSa. The rough eye phenotype caused by expression of jingScer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF is dominantly suppressed by spi1, Df(2L)TW50 or Df(2R)Egfr5.
