Imprecise excision of the progenitor insertion, resulting in a 1077bp deletion from +560 to +1636 relative to the start of ebd2 translation. 477bp of the original insertion remain.
1077 bp deletion resulting from the imprecise excision of P{EPgy2}ebd2EY11662. Extends from +560 to +1636 relative to the ebd2 start of translation. 477bp of the original insertion remains.
The adult midgut defects (excess of mitotic cells, aberrant epithelium architecture) characteristic for Apc[Q8] mutants, a fly model of colorectal cancer, can be ameliorated by combination with ebd1[240]/Df(3L)ED9698, ebd2[136] mutant alleles.
Mutant flies have defects in the dorsal longitudinal muscles of the thorax.
83% of mutant females show loss of dorsal longitudinal muscles of the thorax.
ebd2136, Df(3L)ED9698, ebd1240 is a suppressor of increased cell number | adult stage phenotype of ApcQ8
ebd2136, Df(3L)ED9698, ebd1240 is a suppressor of abnormal cell polarity | adult stage phenotype of ApcQ8
ebd2136, Df(3L)ED9698, ebd1240 is a suppressor of abnormal cell adhesion | adult stage phenotype of ApcQ8
ebd1Df5/ebd1240, ebd2136/ebd2[+] has increased cell number | adult stage phenotype
Df(3L)ED9698/ebd1240, ebd2136 has indirect flight muscle cell phenotype, suppressible by Scer\GAL4ebd1.PB/Hsap\JRKUAS.cBa
ebd2136, Df(3L)ED9698, ebd1240 is a suppressor of adult midgut epithelium phenotype of ApcQ8
ebd2136, Df(3L)ED9698, ebd1240 is a suppressor of intestinal stem cell | increased number | adult stage phenotype of ApcQ8
ebd2136, Df(3L)ED9698, ebd1240 is a suppressor of enteroblast | increased number | adult stage phenotype of ApcQ8
ebd1Df5/ebd1240, ebd2136/ebd2[+] has adult midgut epithelium phenotype
ebd1Df5/ebd1240, ebd2136/ebd2[+] has intestinal stem cell | increased number | adult stage phenotype
ebd1Df5/ebd1240, ebd2136/ebd2[+] has enteroblast | increased number | adult stage phenotype
Adult ebd1240/ebd1Df5,ebd2136 mutants show significant increase in the number of progenitor cells (intestinal stem cells and enteroblasts) in the midgut and unlike in controls frequently display chains or clusters of progenitor cells, the penetrance of this latter phenotype is increased further in ebd1Df5,ebd2136/ebd1240,ebd2136 double mutants.
The adult midgut epithelium defects (increased number of progenitor cells, cell polarity and adhesion defects along with epithelium multi-layering) can be rescued by combination with ebd1240/Df(3L)ED9698,ebd2136.
Expression of Hsap\JRKScer\UAS.cBa under the control of Scer\GAL4ebd1.PB rescues the indirect flight muscle defects seen in ebd1240 ebd2136/Df(3L)ED9698 ebd2136 mutants.
