DORKO homozygotes display smaller and fewer lysosomes (LysoTracker puncta) in the third instar larval fat body.
Mutant larvae have no obvious defects and pupate at almost the same time as control larvae. Only 59% of mutant animals eclose as adults. 35% of mutant pupae show impaired anterior spiracle eversion. Destruction of the larval salivary glands during metamorphosis is delayed in 66% of mutant pupae.
Feeding with 20-hydroxyecdysone significantly rescues the lethality of mutant animals.
Mutant adults have reduced total body triglyceride levels, increased glycogen levels and increased circulating trehalose levels (normalised to total body protein) compared to controls.
