P{EPgy2}CG13280EY07280 contains Scer\UAS sites which drive expression of mdy.
Overexpression of mdy (using mdyEY07280) restores fat body lipid storage levels to near wild-type in Seipinnull larvae (a suppression of the lipodystrophy model in adipose tissue). However, overexpression of mdy (using mdyEY07280) increases the ectopic lipid storage phenotype observed in non-adipose tissue in Seipinnull larvae (an exacerbation of the lipodystrophy model in non-adipose tissue).
Expression of mdyEY07280 using either Scer\GAL4ppl.PP or Scer\GAL448Y results in ectopic lipid droplets in the salivary gland.
mdyEY07280/Scer\GAL448Y is an enhancer of salivary gland phenotype of Seipinnull
mdyEY07280/Scer\GAL448Y is an enhancer of lipid droplet | ectopic phenotype of Seipinnull
mdyEY07280/Scer\GAL4ppl.PP is a suppressor of fat body phenotype of Seipinnull
mdyEY07280/Scer\GAL4ppl.PP is a suppressor of lipid droplet phenotype of Seipinnull
Expression of mdyEY07280 using Scer\GAL4ppl.PP suppresses the reduced lipid storage phenotype seen in Seipinnull fat bodies.
Overexpression of mdyEY07280 using Scer\GAL448Y in a Seipinnull mutant background results in a massive ectopic lipid storage phenotype in salivary glands.
