Ectopic expression of stghs.PE3 using heat shock causes cells in the eye disc to enter mitosis.

Expression of stghs.PE3 in stg2 embryos which are arrested in G2 of cycle 14 (after a 3 hour arrest in G2) induces synchronous mitoses. The spindles in these induced mitoses show no significant abnormalities. Preanaphase figures have one centrosome at each spindle pole.

Expression by heat shock of stghs.PE3 in pupae 4-8 hours after puparium formation causes almost all wing cells to enter into mitosis, with the exception of the wing margin cells. Two hours after the heat shock and extra mitosis, only a small fraction of the cells enter into S phase. These cells appear in clusters distributed along the longitudinal veins. 4 to 16 hours after the heat shock, the pattern of cells in S phase is similar to wild-type, although the fraction of cells in S phase is reduced compared to wild-type. Adult wings derived from pupae heat shocked 4-8 hours after puparium formation show no increase in size compared to wild-type. Expression by heat shock of stghs.PE3 in pupae 20-24 hours after puparium formation induces extra mitoses in the wing which are not followed by an extra S phase.

Heat shock during larval stages has no effect on the phenotype of the eyes of resulting adults.

Heat induced expression restores spindle formation in twe1 mutant testis.

Heat induced expression of stg resulted in premature and almost perfectly synchronous mitosis 16 in CycB-deficient embryos, however subsequent progression through mitosis is slower than for wild type.

Heat shock 160-185 minutes after egg deposition causes the mitotic times of all embryonic cells, except those in the amnioserosa and mitotic domain B that are normally nondividing, to advance. The length of the S phase is unaltered. Heat shocked stg proteins can only induce mitotic divisions in G2 cells. Heat shock of G2 cells of cycle 14 causes all cells, including those from the amnioserosa, to enter S phase. By varying the time of heat pulses cells can only be induced to divide very early in G2 of interphase 16.

25 minutes of heat induced stghs.PE3 expression in EgfrE3 larvae causes mitotic cell appearance in the eye and wing discs. Induction of mitosis in the eye discs leads to a marked reduction of pyknotic bodies that are normally present on the basal side of the discs. Cellular progression into and through apoptosis is disrupted by ectopic stg expression. Heat induced stg expression does not affect the mutant eye phenotype: adults exhibit small elliptical and rough eyes as seen in EgfrE3 homozygotes.
