Amino acid replacement: K1086R.
Expression of PldScer\UAS.cRa under the control of Scer\GAL4ninaE.PU results has no significant effect on the number of rhodopsin1-containing vesicles per ommatidium upon illumination, which as in wild-type slightly increases compared to pre-illumination.
Flies expressing PldK1086R.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF do not show defects in the photoreceptors.
Retinal extracts from flies expressing PldK1086R.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF have a normal phospholipid profile.
Scer\GAL4hs.PU/PldK1086R.UAS fails to rescue Pld3.1
The light-dependent retinal regeneration observed in Pld3.1 homozygous adults cannot be rescued by expression of PldK1086R.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.PU in the mutant background.
