Vps33B5.20 homozygotes show a 'blemished wing' phenotype. Upon infection, adults display a significant decrease in lifespan and their hemocytes, although able to phagocyte heat-killed E.coli bacteria, are unable to clear them, as compared to infected controls.
Vps33B5.20 has short lived | conditional phenotype, suppressible | partially by PGRP-LCRNAi.UAS.cAa/Scer\GAL4da.PU
Vps33B5.20 is partially rescued by Vps33B+tCH322-65H17
