Site of nucleotide substitution in mutant inferred by FlyBase based on reported amino acid change.
The hatching rates and survival rates from first instar larvae to adult of homozygous Myo31DFL152 mutants (derived from homozygous Myo31DFL152 mutant females) are similar to those of wild type.
The posterior midgut and hindgut exhibit a left/right (l/r) reversed phenotype in ~80% of the Myo31DFL152 homozygotes.
Embryos homozygous for Myo31DFL152 display inverse left-right asymmetry in the hindgut positioning compared to wild-type. The hindgut epithelial cells in Myo31DFL152 mutants display predominantly sinistral chirality (more apical cell boundaries fall into the 90[o] to 0[o] angle bin) rather than the dextral chirality predominant in wild type (where most apical cell boundaries fall into the -90[o] to 0[o] angle bin).
Homozygous embryos show defects in the left-right asymmetry of the hindgut: left-right inversion and (rarely) bilateralism phenotypes are seen at stage 14 in the mutant embryos.
The mean length of the cell boundaries at the apical hindgut epithelium is greater than normal in mutant embryos at late stage 12, early stage 13 and late stage 13.
Mutant hindgut epithelial cells show a reversal of the left-right asymmetric polarity which is seen in wild-type hindgut epithelial cells at late stage 12 (before epithelial tube rotation).
Myo31DFL152 mutants exhibit approximately 80% left-right symmetry inversion in the midgut and hindgut simultaneously. In contrast, the foregut of Myo31DFL152 mutant embryos show normal handedness, indicating that these left-right defects are heterotaxic. In addition, in adult Myo31DFL152 mutant flies, the laterality of the testis and hindgut is reversed.
82.0% of homozygous embryos show inversion of the normal left-right asymmetry of the midgut and hindgut.
Myo31DFL152/Df(2L)J2 embryos show inversion of the normal left-right asymmetry of the midgut and hindgut (57.7% and 61.5% respectively).
The normal left-right asymmetry of the hindgut is inversed in 85.7% of homozygous adults, while in 2.9% of cases the hindgut is deformed. The handedness of the spiral of the testis is reversed in 78.7% of homozygous males, while in 19.1% of cases the testis is deformed.

Neither homozygous Myo95E1 nor homozygous Myo61F1 enhances the frequency of left/right (l/r) inversion in the posterior midgut and the hindgut seen in homozygous Myo31DFL152 mutant embryos. As in homozygous Myo31DFL152 mutants alone, ~80% of the double mutants exhibit the l/r reversed phenotype. No further enhancement is seen in the homozygous Myo95E1, Myo61F1 and Myo31DFL152 triple mutants.
Expression of Myo95EScer\UAS.B under the control of Scer\GAL4da.PU does not affect the frequency of left/right (l/r) inversion in the posterior midgut and the hindgut seen in homozygous Myo31DFL152 mutant embryos.
Expression of Myo95EScer\UAS.D under the control of Scer\GAL4da.PU does not affect the frequency of left/right (l/r) inversion in the posterior midgut and the hindgut seen in homozygous Myo31DFL152 mutant embryos.
Expression of Myo61FScer\UAS.cHa under the control of Scer\GAL4da.PU enhances the frequency of left/right (l/r) inversion in the posterior midgut and the hindgut seen in homozygous Myo31DFL152 mutant embryos from 80% to 100%.
Expression of Myo61FScer\UAS.cHa under the control of Scer\GAL4ptc-559.1 does not suppress the change in direction of male genitalia rotation seen in Myo31DFK2/Myo31DFL152 mutant pupae. Mutants expressing Myo61FScer\UAS.cHa continue to exhibit the left-handed (sinistral) rotation seen in Myo31DFK2/Myo31DFL152 mutations, as opposed to the dextral (right-handed) rotation seen in wild type. Expressing Myo61FScer\UAS.cHa in Myo31DFK2 heterozygotes produces partial sinistral phenotypes.
Expression of Myo95EScer\UAS.B under the control of Scer\GAL4ptc-559.1 does not suppress the change in direction of male genitalia rotation seen in Myo31DFK2/Myo31DFL152 mutant pupae. Mutants expressing Myo95EScer\UAS.B continue to exhibit the left-handed (sinistral) rotation seen in Myo31DFK2/Myo31DFL152 mutations, as opposed to the dextral (right-handed) rotation seen in wild type.
Expression of Myo31DFScer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP under the control of Scer\GAL4ptc-559.1 completely rescues the change in direction of male genitalia rotation seen in Myo31DFK2/Myo31DFL152 mutant pupae. Mutants expressing Myo31DFScer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP undergo the 360[o] dextral (right-handed) rotation rather than the left-handed (sinistral) rotation seen in Myo31DFK2/Myo31DFL152 mutations.

Myo31DFL152 is rescued by Scer\GAL4byn-Gal4/Myo31DFUAS.mRFP1
Myo31DFL152 is rescued by Scer\GAL4Act5C.PT/Myo31DFUAS.mRFP1

Expression of Myo31DFScer\UAS.T:Disc\RFP-mRFP under the control of Scer\GAL4byn-Gal4 rescues the inverse left-right asymmetry in the hindgut positioning characteristic for Myo31DFL152 homozygous embryos.
Induction of somatic clones of 'rescued cells', i.e. cells expressing Myo31DFScer\UAS.T:Disc\RFP-mRFP under the control of Scer\GAL4Act5C.PT (using the Aloxg-Gal4 system) in the Myo31DFL152 homozygote mutant background, significantly reduces the frequency of embryos with the reversed LR hindgut asymmetry as compared to non-mosaic Myo31DFL152 mutants. The percentage of 'rescued cells' in the epithelium positively correlates with normal hindgut laterality and normal left-handed hindgut rotation occurs when about 35% of the cells in the epithelium are the 'rescued cells'. The mosaic hindgut epithelium also does not show a prominent cell-shape chirality observed either in the wild-type embryos (dextral planar cell chirality) or in the non-mosaic Myo31DFL152 mutants (sinistral chirality) but the hindgut still undergoes a complete 90[o] left-handed rotation in majority of embryos. In the mosaic embryos, apical cell boundaries between two 'rescued cells' (R-R boundary) show on average significant dextral cell-shape chirality whereas in the 'rescued cell'- mutant cell neighbor pairs (R-M boundary) or between two mutant cells (M-M boundary) there is no significant difference between the frequency of apical cell boundaries falling in the -90[o] to 0[o] angle bin and the 90[o] to 0[o] bin. The dextral cell-shape chirality of 'rescued cells' is only evident if the cells are part of a larger clone of cells but is suppressed in smaller clones of up to 8 cells. The average length of R-R and R-M cell boundaries before and after hindgut rotation does not significantly change but the M-M boundaries are elongated after rotation.
Expression of Myo31DFScer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP in embryos raised at 18[o]C under the control of Scer\GAL4byn-Gal4 and Scer\GAL80ts.αTub84B partially rescues the left-right (LR) inversion of the gut seen in Myo31DFL152 mutants. Approximately 45% of embryos show gut inversion, compared to 40% in the absence of the driver. When embryos undergo a 60 minute temperature shift to 32[o]C at between 10 and 12.75 hours after egg laying effectively rescued the LR defects, The efficiency of rescue increasing up to 12 hours after egg laying but if the temperature shift takes place after 13 hours after egg laying rescue is less effective. The embryos shifted to 32[o]C at 12.75 hours are mostly at the late stage of germband retraction.
