Description

4bp deletion resulting in a frame shift after the G286 codon. This allows the addition of a 100 novel amino acids after G286 and a new stop codon at amino acid 386.

Comment:

Approximate location of 4 base deletion, which causes a frameshift after amino acid G286. As a result, 100 novel amino acids are added onto the protein before termination at residue 386.

Dap160Q24/Dap160Δ1 third instar larvae have a reduced number of neuroblasts per brain lobe compared to wild-type controls.

Progression through mitosis is delayed in Dap160Q24/Dap160Δ1 larval neuroblasts compared to wild-type neuroblasts; the transit from nuclear envelope breakdown to anaphase onset is 13.37 +/- 4.4 minutes in the mutant neuroblasts compared to 7.76 +/- 2.04 minutes in wild-type neuroblasts.

Homozygous single neuroblast clones which are induced in first instar larvae and allowed to develop for 96 hours always contain a single large dpn-positive neuroblast (as do control single neuroblast clones).

Mutant larvae are sluggish and stop moving in late larval stages prior to lethality at midlarval stages. Muscle recordings on muscle 6 in abdominal segment A3 of third instar larvae show that in 2mM calcium, the initial EPSP amplitude in Dap160Q24/Df(2L)10523-35 mutants is comparable to that of controls. However, during prolonged stimulus of the synapse, the Dap160Q24/Df(2L)10523-35 mutant synapse shows a monotonic decline in the average EPSP amplitude (in contrast to control synapses, which can sustain evoked release without decrement for 4 minutes). Muscle recordings on muscle 6 in abdominal segment A3 of third instar larvae show that in 0.5mM extracellular calcium, the average mEPSP amplitude is increased by about 60% in Dap160Q24/Df(2L)10523-35 mutants compared to controls. In addition, there is a slight but statistically significant reduction in the average EPSP amplitude in Dap160Q24/Df(2L)10523-35 mutants compared to controls. Quantal content is decreased in Dap160Q24/Df(2L)10523-35 mutants compared to controls. Homozygous and Dap160Q24/Df(2L)10523-35 third instar larvae show an increase in satellite bouton number at the neuromuscular junction compared to controls.
