Targeted expression of NT1dsRNA.pro.Scer\UAS in the CNS midline (under the control of Scer\GAL4sim.PS) in a NT141 heterozygous background results in a significant increase in apoptosis throughout the CNS cortex compared to controls at embryonic stage 17.
Targeted expression of NT1dsRNA.pro.Scer\UAS in all the neurons (under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155) does not significantly affect axon guidance, whereas expression in the muscle (under the control of Scer\GAL4how-24B) significantly alters axon guidance and routing.
Targeted expression of NT1IR.pro.Scer\UAS in the CNS midline (under the control of Scer\GAL4sim.PS) in a NT141.Δ.w heterozygous background results in a significant increase in apoptosis throughout the CNS cortex compared to controls at embryonic stage 17.
Targeted expression of NT1IR.pro.Scer\UAS in all the neurons (under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155) does not significantly affect axon guidance, whereas expression in the muscle (under the control of Scer\GAL4how-24B) significantly alters axon guidance and routing.
NT1IR.pro.Scer\UAS knocks-down all NT1 transcripts.
