Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Drp1KG03815 type II neuroblast clones in the larval brain exhibit clustered mitochondria.

Drp1KG03815 clones in fat bodies from well-fed early third instar larvae accumulate lysosomes, as indicated by elevated LysoTracker staining, and show redistribution of the Atg8a product into autophagosomes.

Drp1KG03815/+ mutants are fully viable.

Primary spermatocytes in homozygous germline clones induced in males contain abnormally clustered mitochondria. 52% of early round spermatids derived from these spermatocytes retain mitochondrial material and in all cases the mitochondria appear not to have separated properly during meiosis, remaining connected and appearing to pass through the cytoplasmic bridges between spermatids. The remaining 48% of the mutant spermatids have little or no mitochondrial material. At later stages of flagellar elongation, the mutant spermatids have defects in unfurling and elongation of mitochondria, with the spermatids containing spaghetti-like interconnected masses of mitochondria that fail to elongate properly and are associated with multiple nuclei. The ratio of the observed mitochondrial masses to nuclei is 8:34 , consistent with each mass typically representing the mitochondrial material from all four meiotic products of a single spermatocyte.

Drp1KG03815/+ in combination with park25/park25 mutants results in lethality. Viability of flies Drp1KG03815/+ is unaffected in a park25/+ background.

Drp1KG03815/+ in combination with Pink1B9 hemizygous mutations results in almost complete lethality. The few surviving adults are developmentally delayed and are substantially smaller and short lived than single Pink1B9 hemizygous mutants. Viability of Drp1KG03815/+ flies is unaffected in a heterozygous Pink1B9/+ background.

Precise excision of the P{SUPor-P} element reverts the lethal phenotype.
