G to A nucleotide change at the second or third position of the Trp codon leads to a nonsense mutation (exact site of mutation unspecified). Site of nucleotide substitution in mutant inferred by FlyBase based on reported amino acid change.
Lrpprc2A/Lrpprc2A full eye mutant clones show age-dependent defects in electroretinograms (ERGs): 5 week old flies show a dramatic reduction in ERG amplitude and loss of on and off transients; this phenotype is light-dependent (no ERG change in dark conditions). Unlike controls, exposure of mutants to constant light for 1 week significantly reduces ERG amplitude. Retinas of controls, young (2-3 day old) Lrpprc2A/Lrpprc2A flies or Lrpprc2A/Lrpprc2A flies raised in dark conditions for three weeks show similar morphological features, whereas 3 week old Lrpprc2A/Lrpprc2A mutants raised in light/dark conditions show photoreceptor degeneration of rhabdomeres R1-R6 (but not R7 or R8). Lrpprc2A/Lrpprc2A clones show rapid run-down of ERG amplitude and on/off transients in response to repetitive pulses of light and show (slower) recovery of the light response upon rest (compared to controls showing modest run-down and quicker recovery). Lrpprc2A/Lrpprc2A mutants raised on normal food in constant light display an ERG amplitude around 20% of controls, while mutants raised on vitamin A-deficient food show an ERG amplitude around 60% of controls; photoreceptors of mutant flies that are deprived of vitamin A are also indistinguishable from controls.

Lrpprc2A, bsfSH1181 has lethal - all die during embryonic stage phenotype
Expression of Vps35Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 driven by Scer\GAL4ninaE.PU significantly partially suppresses decreases in ERG amplitude seen in 7 day old Lrpprc2A/Lrpprc2A flies raised under constant light conditions.
Lrpprc2A/y;bsfSH1181/bsfSH1181 double mutants die as embryos (compared to Lrpprc2A/Y or bsfSH1181/bsfSH1181 mutants showing pupal lethality).
Expression of Hsap\SOD1Scer\UAS.cPa driven by Scer\GAL4ninaE.PU does not suppress ERG amplitude in Lrpprc2A/Lrpprc2A mutants (7 days old under constant light conditions).
Lrpprc2A is rescued by Lrpprc2+tCH322-75O21
Lrpprc2A is rescued by Lrpprc2+t5
Lrpprc2A is rescued by Lrpprc2EGFP
Lrpprc2+tCH322-75O21 or Lrpprc2+t5 or Lrpprc2T:Avic\GFP-EGFP rescues the early pupal lethality and Lrpprc2+tCH322-75O21 rescues the reduction in electroretinograms amplitude and photoreceptor degeneration seen in aged Lrpprc2A/Lrpprc2A flies.
