UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of a Tag:V5-tagged Mmus\Kirrel.
Wild-type garland cell nephrocytes (GCNs) fuse to form binucleate GCNs in third instar larvae. Ectopic expression of Mmus\KirrelScer\UAS.T:SV5\V5 driven by Scer\GAL4pros.PMG results in excessive GCN fusion resulting in multinucleate GCN cells in third instar larvae.
Overexpression of Mmus\KirrelScer\UAS.T:SV5\V5 using Scer\GAL4hs.2sev results in a rough eye phenotype due to fusion of ommatidia.
Overexpression of Mmus\KirrelScer\UAS.T:SV5\V5 using Scer\GAL4MZ1369 results in optic lobe abnormalities with variable penetrance.
Scer\GAL4sns.GCN/Mmus\KirrelUAS.Tag:V5 is a suppressor of embryonic/larval garland cell | third instar larval stage phenotype of kirresps-1
Scer\GAL4sns.GCN/Mmus\KirrelUAS.Tag:V5 is a suppressor of nucleus | increased number | third instar larval stage phenotype of kirresps-1
The garland cell phenotype associated with kirresps-1 mutants is suppressed by the expression of Mmus\KirrelScer\UAS.T:SV5\V5 using Scer\GAL4sns.GCN.
