Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Larvae expressing SmnG206S.T:Zzzz\FLAG in the SmnX7 null mutant background die earlier than the null mutants alone, suggesting a dominant negative effect.

Comments

SmnG206S.Tag:FLAG fails to rescue both the larval lethality and the larval locomotor defects of SmnX7 homozygotes.

Expression of one copy of SmnG206S.T:Zzzz\FLAG fails to rescue the larval lethality seen in homozygous SmnX7 mutants.

Co-expression of one copy each of SmnT:Zzzz\FLAG and SmnG206S.T:Zzzz\FLAG partially rescues the larval lethality seen in homozygous SmnX7 mutants. The phenotype is intermediate between expressing one copy each of either transgene, indicating that SmnG206S.T:Zzzz\FLAG is having a dominant effect.

Co-expression of one copy each of SmnG210V.T:Zzzz\FLAG and SmnG206S.T:Zzzz\FLAG partially rescues the larval lethality seen in homozygous SmnX7 mutants, resulting in a less severe phenotype than when SmnG206S.T:Zzzz\FLAG is expressed alone. A few adults eclose but most animals reach the pupal stage.

Co-expression of one copy each of SmnY203C.T:Zzzz\FLAG and SmnG206S.T:Zzzz\FLAG fails to rescue the larval lethality seen in homozygous SmnX7 mutants, as is seen when either transgene is expressed alone.
