Description

A 4.5kb Dscam1 promoter fragment drives expression of a cDNA (exons 3-17) - genomic DNA (exons 18-24) hybrid sequence encoding a Dscam1 isoform. The sequence contains alternative exons 4.2, 6.14, and 9.24 (ectodomain) and alternative exon 17.2 (transmembrane domain).

Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Surviving adults of Dscam121/Dscam1B17-1 mutants expressing Dscam1C2.4.2-6.14-9.24-17.2, or both Dscam1B1.4.2-6.18-9.22-17.1 and Dscam1C2.4.2-6.14-9.24-17.2, are largely immobile, have unexpanded wings, and die a few days after eclosion. The mushroom bodies in these adults exhibit abnormal morphology, with either no lobes or only one lobe projecting medially or dorsally.

Expression of both Hsap\DSCAMDscam1.WT and Dscam1C2.4.2-6.14-9.24-17.2, or both Hsap\DSCAML1Dscam1.WT and Dscam1C2.4.2-6.14-9.24-17.2, substantially rescues the lethality of Dscam121/Dscam1B17-1 mutants, with a majority of mutants developing to late pupal stages.

Complementation and Rescue Data
Comments

Expression of Dscam1C2.4.2-6.14-9.24-17.2 partially rescues the lethality of Dscam121/Dscam1B17-1 mutants, with an increased proportion of mutants developing to late pupal stage, and a small number of adults emerging, but fails to rescue the dendritic arborization neuron self-avoidance defects of Dscam121/Dscam1B17-1 mutants.

Expression of Dscam1C2.4.2-6.14-9.24-17.2 partially rescues the axon segregation and additional sister branch defects of Dscam118/Dscam118 late pupal MB neuron clones.

Expression of both Dscam1B1.4.2-6.18-9.22-17.1 and Dscam1B2.4.2-6.18-9.22-17.2, or both Dscam1B1.4.2-6.18-9.22-17.1 and Dscam1C2.4.2-6.14-9.24-17.2, or both Dscam1C1.4.2-6.14-9.24-17.1 and Dscam1C2.4.2-6.14-9.24-17.2, almost completely rescues the lethality of Dscam121/Dscam1B17-1 mutants, with most mutants developing to pupal stage.

Expression of Dscam1B2.4.2-6.18-9.22-17.2, or both Dscam1B2.4.2-6.18-9.22-17.2 and Dscam1C2.4.2-6.14-9.24-17.2, partially rescues the lethality of Dscam121/Dscam1B17-1 mutants, with an increased proportion of mutants developing to late pupal stage, and a small number of adults emerging.
