Expressing PldUAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4VGlut-OK371 leads to larval NMJ showing fewer boutons than controls.

Expression of PldUAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4ninaE.PU leads to retinal degeneration (normal numbered eye photoreceptor cells on the day of eclosion followed by a progressively decreased number of eye photoreceptor cells) when compared to controls.

Expression of PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4ninaE.PU results in a decreased number of rhodopsin1-containing vesicles (RLVs) per ommatidium upon illumination in adult flies, in contrast to wild-type where the RLV number slightly increases compared to pre-illumination.

Flies expressing PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF show vesiculation and degeneration of the rhabdomeres. In addition, the cell body of the photoreceptors shows accumulation of expanded tubulovesicular membraneous structures, which appear as concentric stacks of membranes in the most severe cases.

Retinal extracts from flies expressing PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF show a significant elevation of a single species of phosphatidic acid (predicted fatty acyl composition 16:0 / 18:2 ) compared to controls. The levels of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol in the retinal extracts are normal.

Co-expressing TBPHN493D.UAS and PldUAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4VGlut-OK371 leads to extensive larval NMJ disorganization.

The abnormal drop in the number of rhodopsin1-containing vesicles per ommatidium upon illumination observed in adult flies expressing PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4ninaE.PU is fully suppressed by co-expression of either Vps35dsRNA.Scer\UAS.cUa or garzGD13940 (together with UAS-Dicer2 to enhance the RNAi efficiency).

The light-dependent retinal degeneration as well as the elevated number of rhodopsin1-containing vesicles per ommatidium characteristic for norpA36 homozygous adults can be partially suppressed by expression of PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4ninaE.PU in the mutant background.

Co-expression of CG11426Scer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP partially rescues the rhabdomere degeneration caused by expression of PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF.

Co-expression of garzEP2028 strongly enhances the retina phenotype caused by expression of PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF; only one or two poorly developed rhabdomeres are seen.

Co-expression of Gap69CScer\UAS.cRa partially the rhabdomere defects caused by expression of PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF.

Co-expression of sizP2.Scer\UAS does not enhance the photoreceptor cell phenotypes caused by expression of PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF.

Arf51F4 does not suppress the photoreceptor cell phenotypes caused by expression of PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF.

Animals co-expressing both PldScer\UAS.cRa and α-AdaptindsRNA.Scer\UAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF have virtually no detectable rhabdomeres, and the cell bodies of the photoreceptors continue to show accumulation of membrane transport intermediates.

A shi1 background at 23[o]C does not suppress the rhabdomere defects caused by expression of PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF.

There is a dramatic increase in rhabdomere size in flies expressing PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF in a sktlΔ1-1/sktlΔ20 background compared to flies expressing PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF in a wild-type background.

Comments

The light-dependent retinal regeneration observed in Pld3.1 homozygous adults is rescued by expression of PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.PU in the mutant background.
