UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of a Hsap\CD2AP cDNA that encodes the common 639 amino acid isoform (NP_036252).
The functional and structural defects in Drosophila nephrocytes expressing RNAi against cindr (Drosophila ortholog of CD2AP) are rescued by expression of wt version of human CDAP but not by the nephrotic syndrome-related mutant version carrying the K301M mutation.
Hsap\CD2APUAS.cFa, Scer\GAL4Ugt36A1.PK is a suppressor | partially of short lived phenotype of Scer\GAL4Ugt36A1.PK, cindrRNAi.UAS.cUa
Hsap\CD2APUAS.cFa, Scer\GAL4Ugt36A1.PK is a suppressor | partially of adult pericardial cell phenotype of Scer\GAL4Ugt36A1.PK, cindrRNAi.UAS.cUa
Hsap\CD2APUAS.cFa, Scer\GAL4Ugt36A1.PK is a suppressor | partially of nephrocyte diaphragm | adult stage phenotype of Scer\GAL4Ugt36A1.PK, cindrRNAi.UAS.cUa
The nephrocyte functional defects (measured by uptake assays) as well as structural abnormalities (fusion of the slit diaphragm structures, loss of lacunar channel) and reduced adult lifespan characteristic for flies expressing cindrTRiP.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4Dot.PK are significantly improved by co-expression of Hsap\CD2APUAS.cFa.
