eye photoreceptor cell & axon
Homozygous Traf4ex1 mutant embryos appear normal.
Traf4[+]/Traf4ex1 is a suppressor of abnormal neurophysiology phenotype of ninaE17, ninaEP37H
Traf4[+]/Traf4ex1 is a suppressor of abnormal neuroanatomy phenotype of ninaE17, ninaEP37H
Traf4[+]/Traf4ex1 is a non-suppressor of visible phenotype of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF, egrUAS.cIa
Traf1[+]/Traf4ex1 is an enhancer of thorax phenotype of Scer\GAL4ap-md544, bskDN.UAS
Traf4[+]/Traf4ex1 is a suppressor of rhabdomere of eye photoreceptor cell phenotype of ninaE17, ninaEP37H
Traf4[+]/Traf4ex1 is a non-suppressor of eye phenotype of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF, egrUAS.cIa
The small-eye phenotype caused by expression of egrScer\UAS.cIa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF is not suppressed by Traf4ex1/+.
Expression of bskDN.Scer\UAS, under the control of Scer\GAL4ap-md544, in a Traf1ex1/+ background results in an enhancement of the thorax closure defect seen in Scer\GAL4ap-md544>bskDN.Scer\UAS flies. The Scer\GAL4ap-md544>bskDN.Scer\UAS, Traf1ex1 flies have a larger cleft and the notum structure is disrupted.
Traf4ex1 is viable over deficiencies that remove Traf4 indicating that the lethality associated with Traf4 may not be due to the Traf4 locus.
