GNBP1e03371 mutant flies show reduced survival rate upon infection with either Staphylococcus aureus or Streptococcus pyogenes compared to wild-type.
Mutant flies are susceptible to S. aureus infection compared to wild-type adults.
Hemolymph clots from GNBP1e03371 third instar larvae show normal melanization.
Mutant flies show reduced survival compared to wild-type controls after infection with S. aureus.
Survival rates of mutant flies after injection of Enterococcus faecalis and Streptococcus pyogenes are severely compromised and similar to those of Dif mutants.
GNBP1e03371 has abnormal immune response | adult stage phenotype, non-enhanceable by PGRP-SDsk1
GNBP1e03371 has abnormal immune response phenotype, non-enhanceable by PGRP-SAseml
GNBP1e03371 is a non-enhancer of abnormal immune response phenotype of PGRP-SAseml
The reduced survival rate of GNBP1e03371 mutant adults upon infection with either Staphylococcus aureus or Streptococcus pyogenes is not worsened further by combination with PGRP-SDsk1.
PGRP-SDΔ3 GNBP1e03371 and GNBP1e03371 PGRP-SAseml double mutant flies are extremely susceptible to S. aureus infection compared to wild-type adults.
GNBP1e03371 is rescued by Scer\GAL4hs.PB/GNBP1UAS.cGa
Mutants show a significant decrease in the expression of Drs in response to several Gram-positive bacterial strains, but not generally in response to fungi. Dpt expression is normal after a challenge with Gram-negative bacteria. Transfer of hemolymph from wild type to GNBP1e03371 flies restores the inducibility of Drs by Gram-positive challenge. Excision of the PBac{RB} element is accompanied by reversion of the E. faecalis sensitivity mutant phenotype.
