Detailed Description

Expression of agoΔF.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.PB using heat shock results in an increase in terminal branching throughout the tracheal system.

Expression of agoΔF.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4tey-5053A approximately doubles the number of LF and LH tracheal branches that terminate on ventrolateral body wall muscle (VLM) 12 relative to either the adjacent muscle (VLM13) or to control larvae.

Expression of agoΔF.Scer\UAS in the larval nervous system under the control of Scer\GAL4insc-Mz1407 does not affect neuroblast number.

Scer\GAL4btl.PS driven expression of agoΔF.Scer\UAS in the developing nervous system is sufficient to produce dorsal trunk breaks in approximately 39% of embryos.

The increase in the number of tracheal branches that terminate on ventrolateral body wall muscle 12 caused by expression of agoΔF.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4tey-5053A is suppressed if the flies are also heterozygous for either simaKG07607 or bnl00857.

Co-expression of agoΔF.Scer\UAS and VhldsRNA.Scer\UAS.cMa under the control of Scer\GAL4tey-5053A results in a synergistic increase in the number of tracheal branches that terminate on ventrolateral body wall muscle (VLM) 12 compared to larvae expressing either agoΔF.Scer\UAS or VhldsRNA.Scer\UAS.cMa alone under the control of Scer\GAL4tey-5053A. In addition to increasing the branching of the LF and LH terminal cells onto VLM12 compared to each single mutant, the double mutants show recruitment of ectopic branches from the LG lateral terminal cell onto VLM12 in approximately 10% of cases.

Co-expression of VhlScer\UAS.cAa partially suppresses the phenotype of an increased number of tracheal branches terminating on VLM12 caused by expression of agoΔF.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4tey-5053A.

Expression of agoΔF.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4insc-Mz1407 reduces the number of ectopic neuroblasts by approximately 36% in a numb15 mutant background.

Co-expression of agoΔF.Scer\UAS can partially suppress the neuroblast-loss phenotype induced by overexpression of p53Scer\UAS.Ex under the control of Scer\GAL4insc-Mz1407.
