Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Mutants have normal external morphology, but are not easily kept as homozygous stocks.

mir-1246/mir-12412 males have a substantially shortened lifespan compared to controls.

Homozygous and mir-1246/mir-12412 larvae show defects in locomotion, both in terms of total distance travelled and crawling speed.

The number of boutons at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) and NMJ area (normalised to muscle surface area) are normal in homozygous third instar larvae. The amplitude of miniature excitatory junctional currents (mEJCs) is normal, but the evoked EJC shows an increase in amplitude compared to wild type, resulting in an increase in quantal content at the mutant NMJ.

mir-124+tCH322-39N16 rescues the shortened lifespan of mir-1246/mir-12412 males and the locomotor defects of mir-1246/mir-12412 larvae.

mir-124+tCH322-39N16 rescues the electrophysiological defects at the neuromuscular junction and the locomotor defects seen in homozygous mir-12412 third instar larvae.
