Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Ubiquitous heat-shock induced expression of cncB.hs 6 and 8 hours of development is lethal for 99% of embryos, and most lack mouth hooks and other head structures.

Ectopic expression of cncB.hs at 4-10 hours of embryonic development results in lethality. Ectopic expression at 6-8 hours after egg laying results in a defective head phenotype; rudimentary mouth hooks, H-piece and cirri are formed. The anterior part of the lateralgraten are truncated. The dorsal bridge is abnormal or absent. The antennal sense organ, vertical plates and T-ribs develop normally. These head defects are produced at high penetrance (greater than 95%) by heat shocks between 4-10 hours of development. 10-70% of these embryos (depending on the stage of heat shock) show replacement of abdominal denticles near the ventral midline with naked cuticle.

When cncB.hs and hthScer\UAS.cPa (driven by Scer\GAL4hs.PB) are both ectopically expressed throughout the embryo, a reduction in severity of all aspects of the cncB.hs phenotype is observed. Although still resulting in embryonic lethality, most head skeletal elements are close to wild-type and mouth hooks are seen in all embryos. The addition of cncB.hs suppresses the rescuing effect seen by DfdScer\UAS.cLa (when driven by Scer\GAL4arm.PS) on Dfd16 mutants.

Heat shocked embryos that are heterozygous for both Dfdhs.PK and cncB.hs develop ectopic cirri in only 25% of the first thoracic segments.
