dendrite & dendritic arborising neuron, with Scer\GAL4109(2)80
Golgi apparatus & dendritic arborising neuron, with Scer\GAL4109(2)80
Expression of lvadsRNA.1.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4109(2)80 in class IV dendritic arborization (da) neurons alters the distribution of Golgi outposts in these cells. In the distal and proximal parts of the dendritic arbors, the size of the Golgi outposts is decreased. The number and size of Golgi structures in the soma of these cells is unaltered. The number of dendritic branches in distal and proximal dendrites is dramatically reduced in these cells.
Used to study the phenotypic consequences of dsRNA interference (RNAi) of the lva gene.
