Embryos derived from Klp61F07012/+ females carrying Klp61F3YF.Ubi-p63E.T:Hsap\MYC show a higher incidence of spindles with multiple microtubule organising centers during cycles 1-9 than seen in control embryos. The mutant embryos also show "promiscuous microtubules", including microtubule spurs and microtubules interacting between neighbouring spindles, during cycles 11-13. These promiscuous microtubules are seen in metaphase (at a similar level as occurs in embryos derived from Klp61F07012/+ females with no transgene) and also in anaphase (at a significantly increased level than occurs in embryos derived from Klp61F07012/+ females with no transgene).
Klp61F3YF.Ubi-p63E.Tag:MYC fails to rescue Klp61F07012
Klp61F3YF.Ubi-p63E.T:Hsap\MYC does not rescue the pupal lethality of Klp61F07012 homozygotes or the incidence of aneuploidy in Klp61F07012 larval neuroblasts.
Klp61F3YF.Ubi-p63E.T:Hsap\MYC rescues anastral spindles in embryos derived from heterozygous Klp61F07012 females. However, the monopolar spindle defects are not rescued in these animals.
