Expression of LamScer\UAS.cMAa in 50 day-old flies under the control of Scer\GAL4Cg.PA results in a reduction in intestinal hyperplasia compared to controls.
Expression of LamScer\UAS.cMAa under the control of Scer\GAL4da.G32 at 25[o]C or 29[o]C results in lethality. Expression of the specific insertion P{UAS-Lam.MA}354 under the control of Scer\GAL4arm.PS is lethal at 29[o]C and viable at 25[o]C.
LamUAS.cMAa partially rescues LamK2/LamD395
Expression of LamScer\UAS.cMAa in the fat body under the control of Scer\GAL4Cg.PA significantly rescues the intestinal hyperplasia seen in LamD395/LamK2 mutant flies. The eclosion rate is increased from ~8% to ~40%.
