1751bp deletion that removes the first third of the SAK coding sequence (including all sequence encoding the kinase domain). Some Cdk12 5'UTR sequence is also deleted (the site of the original P{GSV1}GS3043 insertion is within the Cdk12 5'UTR).
Inferred boundaries of a 1751bp deletion resulting from the imprecise excision of P{GSV1}GS3043. The P{GSV1}GS3043 insertion site is reported to be 996bp upstream of the SAK ATG and the deletion extends in one direction toward SAK from the insertion site.
SAKAa74 homozygous adults are uncoordinated and fail to perform in climbing assay (negative gravitaxis assay) when compared to controls.
SAKAa74 homozygous third instar larval brains lack centrioles (GFP-PACT staining) when compared to controls.
SAKAa74/+ embryos do not exhibit any centriole size changes, centriole duplication defects or changes in hatching rates when compared to controls.
SAKAa74/+ embryos exhibit centrioles with a significantly reduced growth rate and a significantly increased growth period compared to controls.
SAKAa74 is rescued by SAKUbi.GFP
SAKAa74 is partially rescued by SAKUAS.SAK.EGFP
Expression SAKUbi.GFP/+ rescues the uncoordinated and no centriole phenotypes of SAKAa74 homozygous adults.
Expression SAKUAS.SAK.EGFP/+ partially rescues the climbing defect and uncoordinated phenotype of SAKAa74 homozygous adults.
