Flies that are debclKO-unspecified transheterozygous with debcl6, debcl22, debcl23, debcl27, debcl59 or debcl61 are viable, fertile and exhibit a normal lifespan.
At variable penetrance (25-57%), extra scutellar bristles are found on the notum. Other phenotypes observed at lower penetrance include: rotated male genitalia, imperforate vaginas in females, melanotic-like cells in the maxillary palps, and patterning abnormalities of tergites and sternites.
Embryos show a moderate decrease in the number of TUNEL-positive cells.
Steady-state ATP levels (a read-out for respiration), mitochondrial morphology , mitochondrial volume, and mitochondrial density per cell in debclKO-unspecified mutants are all similar to WT.
debcl[+]/DebclKO-unspecified is a suppressor | partially of eye phenotype of Mmus\BaxUAS.cGa, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF
DebclKO-unspecified/DebclKO-unspecified is a suppressor of eye phenotype of Mmus\BaxUAS.cGa, Scer\GAL4GMR.PF
The eye ablation phenotype of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF, Mmus\BaxScer\UAS.cGb is partially restored in a debclKO-unspecified heterozygous background and nearly fully restored in a debclKO-unspecified homozygous background.
"debcl[KO-unspecified]" refers to one (or a transheterozygous combination of two) of debcl6, debcl22, debcl23, debcl27, debcl59 or debcl61.
