UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of l(2)glKK100777 under the control of Scer\GAL4Bx-MS1096 or Scer\GAL4Hml.Δ does not lead to a significant difference in survival as compared to controls when larvae are infected with the nematode Heterorhabditis bacteriophora and its associated bacterium Photorhabdus luminescens.
Expression of l(2)glKK100777 (driven by Scer\GAL4Dll-md23) in MARCM clones in the antennal discs in third instar larvae leads to tumorigenic overgrowth, while in the type II neuroblast lineage clones it results in supernumerary neuroblasts but the clones are smaller than the wild-type control clones.
Scer\GAL4tj-NP1624-mediated expression results in the transformation of the normal germline cyst epithelial monolayer into two or more cell layers. Individual cells or cell clusters seem to ingress into the cyst.
Expression of l(2)glKK100777 (co-expressed with Dcr-2Scer\UAS.cDa) under the control of Scer\GAL4repo.PU has no detectable effect on glial cell number in the third instar larval eye disc.
l(2)glKK100777, Scer\GAL4Hml.Δ is an enhancer of increased cell number | larval stage phenotype of Ras85DV12.UAS, Scer\GAL4Hml.Δ
l(2)glKK100777, Scer\GAL4Hml.Δ is a non-enhancer of abnormal locomotor behavior | larval stage | conditional phenotype of Ras85DV12.UAS, Scer\GAL4Hml.Δ

l(2)glKK100777/Scer\GAL4Dll-md23 is a non-enhancer of abnormal cell number | third instar larval stage | somatic clone phenotype of cnoR2
l(2)glKK100777/Scer\GAL4Dll-md23 is a non-enhancer of decreased cell size | third instar larval stage | somatic clone phenotype of cnoR2
l(2)glKK100777, Scer\GAL4Hml.Δ is a non-suppressor of abnormal locomotor behavior | larval stage | conditional phenotype of Ras85DV12.UAS, Scer\GAL4Hml.Δ
Scer\GAL4Dll-md23, l(2)glKK100777 has antennal disc | third instar larval stage | somatic clone phenotype, enhanceable | somatic clone by cnoR2/cnoR2
l(2)glKK100777, Scer\GAL4Hml.Δ is an enhancer of embryonic/larval hemocyte | larval stage | increased number phenotype of Ras85DV12.UAS, Scer\GAL4Hml.Δ
l(2)glKK100777/Scer\GAL4Dll-md23 is a non-enhancer of type II neuroblast | third instar larval stage | somatic clone phenotype of cnoR2
Co-expression of l(2)glKK100777 exacerbates the increased hemocyte count observed in larvae expressing Ras85DV12.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4Hml.Δ; these larvae are viable up to pupal stage and prepare for pupation, but only a subset of these pupae successfully eclose at 25[o]C, as compared to controls. None of these flies eclose when reared at 29[o]C, and pupae exhibit dessication and an absence of precursors of adult structures, in contrast to controls.
Larvae expressing both Ras85DV12.Scer\UAS and l(2)glKK100777 under the control of Scer\GAL4Hml.Δ exhibit no significant difference in wound healing; larvae wounded and infected with the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Erwinia carotovora, or E.coli survive equally well as controls; and hemocytes isolated from larvae exhibit normal phagocytosis levels upon exposure to to heat killed E. coli, as compared to controls.
Larvae expressing both Ras85DV12.Scer\UAS and l(2)glKK100777 under the control of Scer\GAL4Bx-MS1096 infected with the nematode Heterorhabditis bacteriophora and its associated bacterium Photorhabdus luminescens, do not show a significant difference in survival as compared to controls; but when these constructs are driven under the control of Scer\GAL4Hml.Δ, infected larvae show a significant increase in mortality as compared to controls, and also show a similar decrease in motility upon nematode infection as seen in those expressing only Ras85DV12.Scer\UAS.
The tumor-like overgrowth of MARCM clones in larval antennal disc expressing l(2)glKK100777 under the control of Scer\GAL4Dll-md23 is not significantly worsened by cnoR2 homozygosity but the cellular and tissue morphology and disorganization are exacerbated.
The decreased size of neuroblasts in the cnoR2 type II neuroblast lineage MARCM clones is not affected by expression of l(2)glKK100777 (driven by Scer\GAL4Dll-md23) in the clones.
