Imprecise excision of the progenitor insertion, with approximately 2kb of the original element remaining. In addition, there is a perfect deletion of intron 3, exon 4 and intron 4 of the Lsd-1-RA transcript (which encodes the longest protein isoform). This deletion is 1kb away from the insertion site.
Lsd-138 mutants present significantly bigger lipid droplets in the larval fat body, and isolated lipid droplet coalesce more frequently, as compared to controls.
Mutant larvae have larger lipid droplets in the fat body than wild-type larvae, under both fed and starvation conditions.
Total glyceride levels in mutant wandering stage third-instar larvae are normal under fed conditions. Under starvation conditions, the total glyceride level barely decreases in mutant larvae compared to fed conditions and is significantly higher than that in wild-type starved larvae. The level of circulating lipid in the hemolymph is reduced in mutant larvae compared to controls under fed conditions.
Homozygous larvae show reduced survival compared to controls under starvation conditions.
