Expression of beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa in a Df(2R)eve mutant background, under the control of Scer\GAL4eve.RN2 leads to both aCC and RP2 motor neurons displaying an almost exclusively single exit from the CNS.

Misexpression of beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa in EW neurons under the control of Scer\GAL4eg-Mz360 does not alter axonal projection.

Third instar larvae expressing beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR sometimes lack neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) on dorsal muscles (the percentage of muscles lacking NMJs is given in parentheses); muscle 1 (16%), muscle 9 (21%), muscle 2 (7%), muscle 10 (5%).

Larval visual system development occurs normally in 93% of beat-Iatric-1 embryos expressing beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa under the control of Scer\GAL4bi-omb-Gal4. However, a large number of these embryos fail to develop.

Scer\GAL4how-24B mediated expression causes major motoneuron outgrowth defects.

Expression of beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa in an eveΔRP2A mutant background results in the exit of a single motoneuron of the pair in each hemisegment. These mutants exhibit an increase in dorsal projections in 36% of hemisegments.

Co-expression of beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa and Nrg180.I.Scer\UAS in a Df(2R)eve mutant background, under the control of Scer\GAL4eve.RN2 leads to a more robust CNS exit for motor neurons, with many hemisegments displaying exit of both motor neurons. There are two types of exit: unfasciculated, both axons from the same hemisegment chose a different nerve root, or fasciculated, where axons join and exit through the intersegmental nerve root.

Co-expression of beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa and Fas2Scer\UAS.cLa in a Df(2R)eve mutant background, under the control of Scer\GAL4eve.RN2 leads to a more robust CNS exit for motor neurons, with many hemisegments displaying exit of both motor neurons. There are two types of exit: unfasciculated, both axons from the same hemisegment chose a different nerve root, or fasciculated, where axons join and exit through the intersegmental nerve root.

Co-expression of beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa and unc-5Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1,T:SS-wg in a Df(2R)eve mutant background, under the control of Scer\GAL4eve.RN2 leads to a more robust CNS exit for motor neurons, with many hemisegments displaying exit of both motor neurons. There are two types of exit: unfasciculated, both axons from the same hemisegment chose a different nerve root, or fasciculated, where axons join and exit through the intersegmental nerve root.

Co-expression of unc-5Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1,T:SS-wg, beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa and Nrg180.I.Scer\UAS in a Df(2R)eve mutant background, under the control of Scer\GAL4eve.RN2 leads to a more robust CNS exit for motor neurons, with many hemisegments displaying exit of both motor neurons. The number of hemisegments with one neuronal exit is reduced, compared to controls and single and double mutants.

Co-expression of unc-5Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1,T:SS-wg, beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa and Fas2Scer\UAS.cLa in a Df(2R)eve mutant background, under the control of Scer\GAL4eve.RN2 leads to a more robust CNS exit for motor neurons, with many hemisegments displaying exit of both motor neurons. The number of hemisegments with one neuronal exit is reduced, compared to controls and single and double mutants.

Triple misexpression of unc-5Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1,T:SS-wg, beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa, and Nrg180.I.Scer\UAS in EW neurons, under the control of Scer\GAL4eg-Mz360, leads to lateral redirection of axons in 20% of hemisegments.

Quadrupal misexpression of unc-5Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1,T:SS-wg, beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa, Nrg180.I.Scer\UAS and Fas2Scer\UAS.cLa in EW neurons, under the control of Scer\GAL4eg-Mz360, leads to lateral redirection of axons in 33% of hemisegments.

Co-expression of beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa suppresses the lack of neuromuscular junctions seen on dorsal muscles which is caused by expression of sideScer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR.

Comments

The neuromuscular junction innervation defects seen in the dorsal muscles of beat-Ia3/beat-IaC163 third instar larvae are rescued by expression of beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu or Scer\GAL4Fas2-Mz507, but are not rescued by expression of beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR.

Rescues the Bolwig organ phenotype of beat-Iatric-1 and beat-Iaunspecified mutants when expression is directed to the Bolwig organs or optic lobes.

Scer\GAL4elav-C155 mediated expression of beat-IaScer\UAS.cFa rescues the SNb divergence defect of beat-Ia2/beat-Ia3 transheterozygotes.
