Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

mus81Nhe mutants do not show increased sensitivity to larval food exposure to DNA damaging agents camptothecin or methyl methanesulfonate, or to exposure to ionizing radiation, as compared to controls; these mutants show decreased sensitivity to hydroxyurea, with significantly increased adult survival as compared to wild type; and show increased sensitivity to mechlorethamine, with significantly decreased adult survival as compared to wild type.

Similarly to wild-type third-instar larvae, X-ray irradiation of mus81Nhe mutants induces cell cycle arrest in wing imaginal disc cells.

mus81Nhe flies have normal fertility and wild-type levels of X chromosome nondisjunction.

Mutant larvae show moderate hypersensitivity to camptothecin and nitrogen mustard (showing reduced survival to adulthood when fed one of these compounds). Mutants do not show hypersensitivity to UV, MMS or ionising radiation. mus81Nhe/Y and mus81Nhe/Df(1)AD11 larvae are less sensitive to hydroxyurea than wild-type larvae.

Sensitive to camptothecin.

mus81Nhe/mus81Nhe exacerbates the sensitivity of GenZ5997/Df(3L)Exel6103 mutants to DNA damaging agents camptothecin, methyl methanesulfonate, and hydroxyurea, as well as exacerbating sensitivity to ionizing radiation, as shown by a decrease in adult survival after larval feeding with chemical agents.

WRNexoΔ/WRNexoΔ mus81Nhe/mus81Nhe double mutants survive to adulthood but homozygotes eclose at lower frequencies than expected and show poor survival.

The rate of spontaneous mitotic crossovers in Fancm0693/Df(3R)ED6058 males is not affected if animals are also mutant for mus81Nhe. However crossovers are nearly absent in Fancm0693/Df(3R)ED6058 animals that are also mutant for both mus81Nhe and slx1F93I.

Mitotic neuroblasts in mus81Nhe ; mus309N1/mus309D2 double mutant larvae show an increased frequency of broken chromosomes compared to wild type.

The addition of spn-Aunspecified significantly decreases the number of chromosome breaks seen in mitotic neuroblasts of mus81Nhe ; mus309N1/mus309D2 larvae.

In contrast to mei-9A1 or mus81Nhe single mutant larvae, X-ray irradiation of mei-9A1, mus81Nhe double mutant larvae induces cell cycle arrest in wing imaginal disc cells.

Apoptosis in the wing disc is highly elevated compared to wild type in mus81Nhe ; mus309N1 double mutants.
