UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of an isoform of Hsap\PANK2 containing a putative mitochondrial target sequence and a T418M mutation.
Hsap\PANK2T418M.UAS/Scer\GAL4Act.PU is a suppressor of lethal | pupal stage phenotype of fbl1
Hsap\PANK2T418M.UAS/Scer\GAL4Act.PU is a suppressor | partially of short lived phenotype of fbl1
Hsap\PANK2T418M.UAS/Scer\GAL4Act.PU is a suppressor | partially of abnormal locomotor behavior phenotype of fbl1
Hsap\PANK2T418M.UAS/Scer\GAL4Act.PU is a suppressor | partially of female sterile phenotype of fbl1
Hsap\PANK2T418M.UAS/Scer\GAL4Act.PU is a non-suppressor of male sterile phenotype of fbl1
Hsap\PANK2T418M.UAS/Scer\GAL4Act.PU is a non-suppressor of adult brain phenotype of fbl1
Hsap\PANK2T418M.UAS/Scer\GAL4Act.PU is a non-suppressor of retina | adult stage phenotype of fbl1
Hsap\PANK2T418M.UAS/Scer\GAL4Act.PU is a non-suppressor of testis phenotype of fbl1
Expression of Hsap\PANK2T418M.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4Act.PU in a fbl1 mutant background dramatically increased the eclosion rate. Ectopic expression partially suppresses the impaired locomotion phenotype and short lifespan of fbl1 mutant flies. Female fertility is restored in these animals but males are sterile and display abnormal spermatogenesis.
Expression of Hsap\PANK2T418M.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4Act.PU in a fbl1 mutant background results in a neurodegeneration phenotype. Adult brain and retinal tissue display large vacuoles at 12 days old.
