Expression of Fas2UAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4let7C does not alter mushroom body α/β lobe morphology.

Expression of Fas2UAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4c305a results in α'/β' mushroom body lobe neurons projecting into the α/β lobe.

The number of secondary branches on the motor neuron that innervates DLMa is reduced when Fas2UAS.cUa is expressed under the control of the neuronal Scer\GAL4elav-C155 driver. As a result, the pool of secondary branches that can form higher order branches is reduced and the number of contact points between the neuron and the muscle is significantly reduced (from 5 to 4.3). When Fas2UAS.cUa is expressed in muscle, under the control of Scer\GAL4Mhc.PW, there is a reduction in the amount of secondary branches on the motor neuron that innervates DLMa. However, secondary branches are longer and occupy a greater area on the muscle surface than wild-type branches. The lower numbers of secondary branches results in a lower number of contact points between the neuron and the muscle (from 5 to 4.4) and a reduction in overall muscle length.

Expression of Fas2UAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4mir-210-KO in mir-210KO heterozygous adults results in significantly advanced evening peak circadian locomotor activity under light-dark conditions, compared to controls; this is still the case when Scer\GAL80Pdf.PS, but not Scer\GAL80GMR.PU, is used to restrict expression of Fas2UAS.cUa.

Expression of Fas2UAS.cUa fails to suppress the synaptic retraction phenotype seen in the NMJs of third instar larvae when NrgGD82 is expressed under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 and Scer\GAL4VGlut1-OK371.

The hyperfasciculation phenotype seen in the axons of eye photoreceptor cells in ate third instar Sema1aUAS.cYa; Scer\GAL4GMR.PF larvae is enhanced by Fas2UAS.cUa - axons are clustered into relatively few large bundles in the lamina and medulla.

Expression of Fas2UAS.cUa pre- and post-synaptically, under the control of Scer\GAL4shot-OK307 in a Nrg849 heterozygous background fails to suppresses the Nrg849 giant synapse physiological phenotype.

Coexpression of RdlUAS.cSa and Fas2UAS.cUa in the 3 U motorneurons (under the control of eve2xCQ.RC.G4DBD results in the co-arrest of 54% of the intersegmental motor nerves, indicating an enhancement on the ISN phenotype observed in RdlUAS.cSa;eve2xCQ.RC.G4DBD overexpression experiments.

Coexpression of RdlUAS.cSa and Fas2UAS.cUa in the aCC/RP2 axons (under the control of Scer\GAL4eve.RN2 results in the co-arrest of 97% of the intersegmental motor nerves (ISN), indicating an enhancement on the ISN phenotype observed in RdlUAS.cSa;Scer\GAL4eve.RN2 overexpression experiments (where 70% of ISNs are stalled).

Comments

Expression of Fas2UAS.cUa can rescue the DLMa innervation phenotype of Fas2e76 mutants, depending on the driver used. Under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155, Fas2UAS.cUa reduces the average number of motor neuron contact points along the DLMa in Fas2e76 mutants from 5.8 to 5.1, while this number is reduced to 4.6 when Fas2UAS.cUa is driven by Scer\GAL4Mhc.PW.

Expression of Fas2UAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.PB rescues the genitalia rotation defects seen in Fas2spin males if a single heat shock is given at 7 days of development. If Fas2UAS.cUa is expressed under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.PB using heat shock applied before or after this period, little rescuing activity of the Fas2spin male genitalia rotation defects is seen. The genitalia rotation defects seen in Fas2spinR5 males are fully rescued by expression of Fas2UAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu or Scer\GAL4Kurs21. The genitalia rotation defects seen in Fas2spinR5 males are partially rescued by expression of Fas2UAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4Feb78. The genitalia rotation defects seen in Fas2spinR5 males are not rescued by expression of Fas2UAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4Feb211 or Scer\GAL4Aug21. Expression of Fas2UAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4Feb170 either completely rescues or fails to rescue the genitalia rotation defects seen in Fas2spinR5 males (the Scer\GAL4Feb170 allele shows variegated Scer\GAL4 expression).
