Q457term
Expression of IncenpUASp.Tag:MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4VP16.nos.UTR leads to abnormal chromosome segregation (including missegregation of both chiasmate and achiasmate X chromosomes) in oocytes although a bipolar spindle forms in most of the oocytes as compared to controls. There are more severe defects in a IncenpEC3747 background.
IncenpEC3747 mutant first larval instar escapers show reduced mobility and abnormal wandering behaviour.
Heterozygous IncenpEC3747 mutants exhibit a wild-type neural pattern in the PNS.
Homozygous IncenpEC3747 mutants exhibit a range of neural defects in the PNS, from severe cases of neuronal loss to perturbation of the neural clusters and missing subsets of neurons.
There appears to be no difference between IncenpEC3747 mutant and wild-type embryos during the first 13 rapid synchronous cycles. IncenpEC3747 embryos show no defect in cellularization. There are no defects in early-stage embryos, although from mitotic cycle 15, a very low percentage of cells exhibit chromosome segregation defects. By embryonic stage 13, cells in the central nervous system show enlarged nuclei and bigger or multiple centrosomes compared with wild-type.
IncenpEC3747 neuroblasts exhibit defects in the shape and orientation of the basal pros cresent.
IncenpEC3747/Incenp[+] is an enhancer of abnormal mitotic cell cycle phenotype of sub131/sub1
IncenpEC3747/Incenp[+], sub131/sub1 has lethal | larval stage phenotype
sub1/sub131, IncenpEC3747/+ mutant larval brains display defects in spindle assembly, and short and disorganised metaphase spindles are common. Anaphase spindles usually lack an organised midzone, and 76% show lagging chromosomes at anaphase (compared to 55% in sub1/sub131 mutant brains). Double mutant larvae exhibit a high frequency of polyploid cells.
