Scer\GAL4hs.PB/Rac1V12.C.UAS is a suppressor of rhabdomere phenotype of ninaE17
Expression of Rac1V12.C.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.PB during rhabdomere morphogenesis substantially rescues rhabdomere morphogenesis in ninaE17 mutants. Occasional loops of rhabdomere membrane are seen intruded into the photoreceptor, but most terminate at a well-defined base. The rhabdomere terminal web (RTW) is more tightly organised. Substantial rescue is seen 5 days after eclosion. About 18% of R1-R6 rhabdomeres are rescued in non-heat shocked animals, rising to 90% in animals heat shocked at 80% of pupal development.
