A majority of TBPHΔ142/TBPHΔ142 mutant adults (with higher penetrance in females than males) display supernumerary anterior postalar bristles, a small fraction show supernumerary scutellar or supernumerary dorsocentral bristles.
A subset of TBPHQ367X/TBPHΔ142 mutant adults (with higher penetrance in females than males) display supernumerary anterior postalar bristles (most common phenotype when reared at 18[o]C or 25[o]C), supernumerary scutellar bristles (most common phenotype when reared at 30[o]C) or, in a small fraction of cases, supernumerary dorsocentral bristles. supernumerary bristles in mutants are accompanied by supernumerary sensory neurons. In general, supernumerary bristles are observed more frequently when flies are grown at 18[o]C than when reared at 25[o]C or 30[o]C.
The NMJ morphology of TBPHΔ142 mutant first instar larvae is similar to wild type. Presynaptic ramifications and muscular insertions appear normal in the mutant motor axons. In contrast, significant abnormalities are observed in second instar larval NMJs, and these are even more evident at the third instar larval stage. Muscle development appears normal in TBPHΔ142 mutant flies: no differences in organ growth, cytoskeletal organisation or postsynaptic differentiation are observed.
TBPHΔ142 mutant synaptic boutons on muscles 6 and 7 in third instar larvae appear deformed and are irregularly spaced along the terminal axons with several fused or elongated silhouettes and clear loss of their characteristic round-smooth shape. Microtubule stability is significantly reduced in the distal boutons compared to controls.
Homozygotes survive embryogenesis and more than 60% reach the pupal stage. However, only 16% of homozygotes eclose, with 32% becoming trapped in the pupal case. Homozygous adults have dramatic locomotive defects, in both walking and climbing assays.
Homozygous adults have a reduced lifespan compared to controls.
The number of type 1b and 1s boutons and the number of synaptic branches at the neuromuscular junction of muscles 6 and 7 is reduced in homozygous larvae compared to controls.

Expression of Hsap\TARDBPG287S.Scer\UAS.cVBa, Hsap\TARDBPA315T.Scer\UAS.cVBa, Hsap\TARDBPD169G.Scer\UAS.cVBa, Hsap\TARDBPA90V.Scer\UAS.cVBa or Hsap\TARDBPScer\UAS.cVBa driven by Scer\GAL4nSyb.PU equally partially rescue pupal lethality (around 50% of flies expected by a full rescue eclose) in TBPHΔ142/TBPHΔ23 mutants. However, the median lifespan of surviving TBPHΔ142/TBPHΔ23 flies with expression of Hsap\TARDBPA90V.Scer\UAS.cVBa, Hsap\TARDBPA315T.Scer\UAS.cVBa or Hsap\TARDBPG287S.Scer\UAS.cVBa is significantly lower than flies with expression of Hsap\TARDBPD169G.Scer\UAS.cVBa or Hsap\TARDBPScer\UAS.cVBa (driven by Scer\GAL4nSyb.PU); all genotypes display shorter lifespan than controls. Expression (driven by Scer\GAL4nSyb.PU) of Hsap\TARDBPD169G.Scer\UAS.cVBa or Hsap\TARDBPScer\UAS.cVBa (but not Hsap\TARDBPA90V.Scer\UAS.cVBa, Hsap\TARDBPA315T.Scer\UAS.cVBa or Hsap\TARDBPG287S.Scer\UAS.cVBa) suppresses the loss of bursicon neurons seen in TBPHΔ142/TBPHΔ23 mutants.
