Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Ubiquitous expression of MTF-1Tub.PY sensitises flies to zinc toxicity as compared with wild-type flies. Males expressing MTF-1Tub.PY fed with zinc metal die at faster rate in comparison with wild-type flies but show no sensitivity or resistance on cadmium-supplemented medium relative to wild-type.

MTF-1Tub.PY overexpression sensitises larvae to zinc overload but increases larval resistance to copper and ammonium tetrathiomolybdate (TTM) toxicity.

Ubiquitous overexpression of MTF-1Tub.PY sensitises flies to starvation induced mortality.

Reference

Overexpression of MTF-1Tub.PY in Scer\GAL4NP2020>ATP7dsRNA.Sym.Scer\UAS flies significantly enhances pupal survival.

The increased sensitivity of flies expressing Dpy-30L1Scer\UAS.cVa under the control of Scer\GAL4Act to cadmium or zinc in the food medium is rescued by co-expression of MTF-1Tub.PY.
