    Homozygous embryos show no BrdU incorporation in cycle 16 nuclei.

    S phase 16 does not occur in homozygous embryos.

    dupa1 mutants exhibit an increase in mitotic index. Chromosomes fail to congress into a metaphase plate during mitosis 16.

    Mutant embryos fail to replicate chromosome in the S phase prior to mitosis 16, resulting in mitotic figures in mitosis 16 that contain single chromatids that are fully condensed.

    S phase of cycle 16 is blocked in mutant embryos and cells enter mitosis as unreplicated nuclei, with chromosomes often appearing overcondensed and fragmented.

    Cells in homozygous dupa1 mutant embryos enter mitosis 16 at the same time as heterozygous controls. But S phase 16 is absent. Once in M16 the cells are arrested and remain in this state until at least stage 11 and mitotic cells are still visible at stage 15. Spindles in these mutants contain apparently functional centrosomes, chromosomes fail to align properly. Most chromosomes lie within the bipolar spindle but are scattered and not compacted into a metaphase plate. Severe alignment defects are seen in about 84% of mitotic cells.

    DNA replication is blocked in S phase of cycle 16 in homozygous dupa1 embryos borne of heterozygous mothers. Reduced levels of chorion amplification are also seen. In ovaries from dupPA77/dupa1 female flies, incorporation of BrdU into the follicle cell genome is reduced. This reduction is most apparent at stage 9. No incorporation is seen at the chorion loci at any stage.

    Statement
    Reference

    In contrast to pimIL and dupa1 single mutants, double mutants do not exhibit an increase in mitotic index. Chromosomes are found to congress into a metaphase plate during embryonic mitosis 16 as in wild-type.

    In dupa1 Cap-GK4 double mutants, cells at cycle 16 contain unreplicated chromosomes that fail to condense into discernible metaphase chromosomes.

    dupa1/+ enhances the rough eye phenotype caused by expression of gemininScer\UAS.cQa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF. The dupa1 embryonic cycle 16 S phase defect is suppressed by gemininunspecified.
