E2fGMR.PD, DpGMR.PD, BacA\p35GMR.PH animals exhibit extra cells in the adult eye.

ebik16213 enhances the rough eye phenotype of E2fGMR.PD DpGMR.PD BacA\p35GMR.PH, increasing the irregular arrangement of the ommatidial facets. A large number of inter-ommatidial bristle duplications are also seen.

In the eyes of E2fGMR.PD, DpGMR.PD flies ommatidia form irregular rows and lack their regular hexagonal shape. In addition, many eye bristles are duplicated. The addition of NosGMR.PK or Noshs.PK (with heatshock) to E2fGMR.PD, DpGMR.PD flies the eye phenotypes seen are greatly reduced in severity. The addition of BacA\p35GMR.PH to E2fGMR.PD, DpGMR.PD flies enhances the eye phenotype seen in these flies. The addition of BacA\p35GMR.PH suppresses to wild-type the eye phenotype seen in E2fGMR.PD, DpGMR.PD, RbfGMR.PD flies. The inhibition of Nos activity with L-NAME prevents this suppression. The arrangement of ommatidia is still abnormal, and many additional pigment cells are still observed.

Flies expressing both E2fGMR.PD and DpGMR.PD have a rough eye phenotype, although individual ommatidia are relatively normal. This phenotype is dominantly enhanced by Df(1)AD11 or Df(1)su(s)83; ommatidia are abnormal and variably shaped and additional bristles are seen in places. The phenotype is also enhanced by Rbf120a or Rbf14.

The eyes of flies expressing both E2fGMR.PD and DpGMR.PD have extra sensory bristles and the regular pattern of bristle, cone and photoreceptor cells is disrupted, causing a rough eye phenotype. The E2fGMR.PD DpGMR.PD phenotype is unaffected if the flies are also carrying Dp49Fk-1, Df(2R)vg56, E2frM729, E2f07172, cdc2E10, cdc2216A, Df(2R)H81, CycA5, Df(2R)59AB, CycEAR95, CycE2, stg2 or stg7. The E2fGMR.PD DpGMR.PD phenotype is subtly enhanced by osaE65 and dramatically enhanced in the presence of both osaE65 and BacA\p35GMR.PH.

Flies carrying P{GMRdDP} have almost normal eye structure assayed by SEM, although a few additional bristles can be seen. Cross sections reveal ommatidial structure is normal. Flies carrying two copies of both P{GMRdDP} and P{GMRdE2F} have severely affected eyes. Eyes are rough, ommatidia are misshapen and ectopic interommatidial bristles develop. Approximately 50% of ommatidia have missing photoreceptor cells and 25% have extra photoreceptor cells. The normal symmetrical pattern of photoreceptor trapezoids is not present. The arrangement of cone cells is perturbed, and the number of cone cells per cluster varies between 3 and 5. Neuronal cell differentiation is initiated normally. BrdU staining reveals that ectopic S phases occur posterior to the morphogenetic furrow, sometimes in differentiating cells. Acridine orange staining reveals that increased cell death occurs posterior to the furrow. A significant delay separates the onset of expression of E2fGMR.PD and DpGMR.PD and the onset of apoptosis. This phenotype is enhanced by BacA\p35GMR.PH.

Coexpression of E2fGMR.PD and DpGMR.PD causes ectopic S phases in the regions of the eye that normally contain only postmitotic cells. The eyes of adults carrying two copies of E2fGMR.PD and DpGMR.PD are rough and are characterised by abnormal pattern of photoreceptors and cone cells, and by additional bristles. The mutant eye phenotype caused by RbfGMR.PD can be suppressed by coexpression of E2fGMR.PD and DpGMR.PD. RbfGMR.PD expression in adults carrying two copies of E2fGMR.PD and DpGMR.PD suppresses the rough eye phenotype, restoring the normal arrangement of ommatidia.

Co-expression of E2fGMR.PD does not rescue the eye phenotype caused by expression of Mmus\Mdm2Scer\UAS.cFa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF.

ebik16213 enhances the rough eye phenotype of E2fGMR.PD DpGMR.PD BacA\p35GMR.PH, increasing the irregular arrangement of the ommatidial facets. A large number of inter-ommatidial bristle duplications are also seen.
