Gr22eLL05566 mutant flies do not show significant changes in the expected avoidance response to food laced with acetic acid (5%), as compared to controls.
Gr22eLL05566 mutants show significantly reduced S-b sensilla responsiveness to the bitter chemicals LOB, BER, DEN, STR and SOA, but not to CAF or UMB, as compared to controls; S-a sensilla show decreased responsiveness to DEN and STR, but not to LOB, BER, CAF, SOA or UMB, as compared to controls; and I-a and I-b sensilla show no changes in responsiveness to any of the chemicals, as compared to controls. This correlates with decreased food avoidance to LOB, BER and DEN in two-way choice assays, as compared to controls.
The expression of Gr22eUAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4Gr33a-GAL4 in Gr22eLL05566 mutants rescues their decreased S-b sensilla responsiveness to LOB, BER, DEN and STR, and even induces hyper-responsiveness to all four chemicals in both S-a and S-b sensilla, ectopic responsiveness to all four chemicals in I-b sensilla, and ectopic responsiveness only to STR in I-a sensilla.

The expression of Gr59cUAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4Gr33a-GAL4 in Gr22eLL05566 mutants rescues their decreased S-b sensilla responsiveness to the bitter chemicals LOB, BER, DEN and STR, and even induces hyper-responsiveness to LOB, BER, DEN in both S-a and S-b sensilla, and ectopic responsiveness to LOB, BER and DEN in I-b sensilla, but does not have an effect on responsiveness in I-a sensilla.
The decreased responsiveness of S-a sensilla to LOB and DEN and the decreased responsiveness of S-b sensilla to LOB and DEN observed in Gr22eLL05566 mutants are partially suppressed by Gr59c1; the decreased responsiveness of S-b sensilla to BER is not affected by Gr59c1. The lack of responsiveness of I-a sensilla observed in Gr59c1 mutants is not suppressed by Gr22eLL05566.
The decreased food avoidance to the bitter chemicals LOB, BER and DEN observed in Gr22eLL05566 mutants is enhanced by Gr59c1.
