The number of acidic autolysosomes (detected by LysoTracker staining) is strongly reduced and the number of autophagy structures is increased in fat body cells of starved Mon1mut4/Df(2L)ED7853 mutant third instar larvae relative to controls, while the cells show abnormal accumulation of autophagosomes. Similarly, cells in Mon1mut4 mutant somatic clones in larval fat body display fewer acidic autolysosomes and more autophagosomes than the surrounding control cells.
Cells in homozygous clones in the wing disc contain enlarged endosomes which are strongly acidified. The number of cells in a given area is increased in the mutant disc compared to wild type.
Mon1mut4/Mon1mut4 is a non-suppressor of abnormal cell size | somatic clone | third instar larval stage phenotype of Rab52
Mon1mut4 has embryonic/larval fat body | somatic clone | third instar larval stage phenotype, non-suppressible by Rab52/Rab52
Mon1mut4 has autolysosome | somatic clone | third instar larval stage phenotype, non-suppressible by Rab52/Rab52
Mon1mut4/Mon1mut4 is a non-suppressor of embryonic/larval fat body | somatic clone | third instar larval stage phenotype of Rab52
Somatic clones of fat body cell double mutant for both Rab52 and Mon1mut4 are larger than their neighboring control cells (as are Rab52 single mutant cells) but display similar abnormal accumulation of autophagosomes and lack of acidic autolysosomes as Mon1mut4 mutant cells in starved third instar larvae.
Mon1mut4/Df(2L)ED7853 is rescued by Mon1UAS.Tag:HA/Scer\GAL4hs.PU
Mon1mut4 is rescued by Scer\GAL4hh-Gal4/Mon1UAS.cYa
Mon1mut4 is rescued by Mon1UAS.Tag:HA/Scer\GAL4hh-Gal4
Expression of Mon1Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.PU rescues the loss of acidic autolysosomes (detected by LysoTracker staining) observed in fat cells of starved Mon1mut4/Df(2L)ED7853 third instar larvae.
Expression of either Mon1Scer\UAS.cYa or Mon1Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 under the control of Scer\GAL4hh-Gal4 rescues the enlarged endosome phenotype of Mon1mut4 cells.
Separable from: bib1.
The Mon1mut4 allele is a background mutation present on some bib1 chromosomes, and it accounts for the aberrant protein trafficking phenotype that was erroneously attributed to bib1 in FBrf0204892.
