Amino acid replacement: K1481A.
An Hsp70 promoter drives expression of Nf1 which contains an amino acid substitution relative to wild type.
Nf1K1481A.hs rescues Nf1E2
Nf1K1481A.hs rescues Nf1E2
Nf1K1481A.hs rescues the neuromuscular junction overgrowth phenotype seen in Nf1E2/Nf1E2 larvae. The reduced body size of Nf1E2/Nf1E2 pupae is also rescued.
The pupal size defect seen in Nf1E2 animals is rescued by expression of Nf1K1481A.hs using heat shock.
