Letm1UAS.cCa, Scer\GAL4ey.PH is a suppressor | partially of eye photoreceptor cell phenotype of Scer\GAL4ey.PH, mt:CoIT300I
Co-expression of Letm1Scer\UAS.cCa significantly suppresses the photoreceptor degeneration seen in homoplasmic mt:CoIT300I mutant eyes (generated through expression of Xvas\XhoIScer\UAS.P\T.T:Mito-kdn,T:Hsap\MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4ey.PH in a heteroplasmic mt:CoIT300I mutant background). Many vacuoles are seen in both young and old photoreceptors.
