Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Homozygotes show progressive, age-dependent neurodegeneration (vacuolar pathology is seen in the central brain and optic lobes).

Homozygotes are short lived: the survival midpoint is reduced from 30 to 10 days at 29[o]C. Aldm4/Df(3R)BSC496, Aldm4/Df(3R)BSC512 and Aldm4/Df(3R)Exel6204 heterozygotes are also short lived.

Homozygotes become uncoordinated after 1 minute at 37.5[o]C, are immobilised within 4 minutes and are fully motionless within 8 minutes. Recovery to full mobility begins within minutes if the paralysed flies are returned to room temperature.

Homozygotes have an approximately 50% reduction in steady-state ATP levels compared to wild type.

Comments

Expression of AldScer\UAS.cMa under the control of Scer\GAL4tub.PU fully rescue the temperature sensitive paralysis phenotype and significantly (but not completely) rescues the lifespan and neurodegeneration defects of Aldm4 homozygotes.

Expression of AldScer\UAS.cMa under the control of Scer\GAL4repo-M1B does not rescue the shortened lifespan of Aldm4 homozygotes, while the neurodegeneration defect is substantially rescued.

Expression of AldScer\UAS.cMa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 significantly (but not completely) rescues the shortened lifespan and substantially rescues the neurodegeneration defects of Aldm4 homozygotes.
