EndoAΔ4/EndoA26, EndoAS75D.CyPet larvae show increased autophagosomes (Atg8-mCherry) and autolysosomes (Lamp-GFP) at NMJ boutons, under both fed and starved conditions.
In EndoAΔ4/EndoA26 transheterozygotes containing a copy of EndoAS75D.T:Avic\GFP-CyPet, the presynaptic region of third instar larval neuromuscular junctions presents an abnormally high density of autophagosomes (detected as fluorescent puncta of Atg8 or Lamp in confocal microscopy images) under normal diet, but does not present defects in the starvation-induced autophagosome formation, as compared to controls. Adults exhibit significant decreases in the number of dopaminergic PPM3 and PPL1 neurons, but not dopaminergic PPM1 and PPM2 neurons, at day 30, but not day 1, after eclosion, as compared to controls. In adults reared under constant light, but not under constant dark, the eye exhibits a significant decrease in the rhabdomere number per ommatidium and in the photoreceptor terminal number per lamina cartridge (at day 7 of light exposure), as compared to controls; the eye of individuals reared under either constant light or constant dark also exhibits a significant decrease in depolarization amplitude in response to light pulses (at day 3 of light exposure), as compared to controls.
EndoAS75D.CyPet is a suppressor of autophagosome | third instar larval stage | nutrition conditional phenotype of Lrrke03680
EndoA26, EndoAΔ4, EndoAS75D.CyPet is a non-suppressor of autophagosome | larval stage | decreased number | nutrition conditional phenotype of EndoB4
EndoA26, EndoAΔ4, EndoAS75D.CyPet is a non-suppressor of embryonic/larval neuromuscular junction | larval stage | nutrition conditional phenotype of EndoB4
EndoA26, EndoAΔ4, EndoAS75D.CyPet is a non-suppressor of NMJ bouton | larval stage | nutrition conditional phenotype of EndoB4
EndoA26, EndoAΔ4, EndoAS75D.CyPet is a non-suppressor of autolysosome | larval stage | decreased number | nutrition conditional phenotype of EndoB4
EndoAS75D.CyPet, Lrrke03680 has autophagosome | third instar larval stage | nutrition conditional phenotype
One copy of EndoAS75D.T:Avic\GFP-CyPet rescues the failure in starvation-induced autophagosome formation observed at the presynaptic region of Lrrke03680-homozygous third instar larval neuromuscular junctions, but, under normal diet, leads to a significant increase in the density of autophagosomes at the same site.
