Description

UASt sequences govern expression an inverted repeat of 770bp of Gαq cDNA sequence from a region common to all Gαq splice variants. This sequence was amplified from of the Gαq3α isoform cDNA using PCR primers: (5'-GGTACC(538)TCACGATACTAGCAGCATCCC-3') (5'-GGATCC(1314)CGGTGTAAGCGAGCGAAG-3') for the forward sequence and (5'-TCTAGA(539)GTGCTATGATCGTCGTAGGGA-3') (5'-GGATCC(1308)TTCGCTCGCTTCTCAATTCT-3') for the inverted sequence. A 12 nucleotide linker separates the forward and reverse sequences.

Expression of GαqdsRNA.Scer\UAS.1f1 under the control of Scer\GAL4unspecified results in an aberrant innervation pattern of type III axons in body-wall muscle 13 in third instar larvae.

GαqdsRNA.UAS.1f1 under the control of Scer\GAL4Gr21a.PC induces decreased avoidance to CO2, as compared to heterozygous and wild-type controls. Expression throughout development and adulthood under the control of Scer\GAL4Gr21a.PC, or only during adulthood under the control of Scer\GAL4Gr63a.PF (using Gal80[ts] for temporal control of expression), induces decreased electrophysiological responses of the basiconica rich region of the 3rd antennal segment to CO2 exposure, as compared to controls.

Expression of Gα49BdsRNA.Scer\UAS.1f1 under the control of Scer\GAL4Orco.T:Hsim\VP16 does not reduce the odour response of the ab1A or ab2A olfactory receptor neurons (tested with ethyl acetate) or of the ab3A ORN (tested with methyl butyrate).

Expression of Gα49BdsRNA.Scer\UAS.1f1 under the control of Scer\GAL4Gr21a.9.323 results in a significant decrease in the response of the ab1C ORN to CO[[2]], across a wide response range.

Expression of Gα49BdsRNA.Scer\UAS.1f1 under the control of Scer\GAL4Gr21a.9.323 selectively in adulthood (using the temperature sensitive Scer\GAL80ts.αTub84B allele to block expression at earlier stages of development) is sufficient to decrease the response to CO[[2]] compared to wild type, at all concentrations of CO[[2]] tested.

The electroantennograms of animals expressing Gα49BdsRNA.Scer\UAS.1f1 under the control of either Scer\GAL4Gα49B.PS or Scer\GAL4Or83b.2.642.T:Hsim\VP22 have a reduced amplitude compared to controls in response to a number of odours (ethyl acetate, butanol, propionic acid, benzaldehyde and iso-amyl acetate).

The response to ethyl acetate of ab2 large basiconic hairs in animals expressing Gα49BdsRNA.Scer\UAS.1f1 under the control of Scer\GAL4Gα49B.PS is significantly different from that of control cells; the firing frequency of the mutant ab2a neuron in response to ethyl acetate is strongly reduced compared to controls.

Spontaneous odor identity discrimination is significantly disrupted in transgenic Scer\GAL4c309/+; Galpha49BdsRNA.Scer\UAS.1f1, Scer\GAL80ts.αTub84B/+ flies at the restrictive (30[o]C) but not the permissive temperature.

60% of Gα49BdsRNA.Scer\UAS.1f1; Scer\GAL4Ddc.PL flies are flightless. However, the wing posture of these flies and the spontaneous firing rate in dorsal longitudinal flight muscle is normal.

The electroantennograms of animals co-expressing Plc21CGD11359 and Gα49BdsRNA.Scer\UAS.1f1 under the control of Scer\GAL4Or83b.2.642.T:Hsim\VP22 show a significant decrease in amplitude compared to controls in response to a number of odours (ethyl acetate, butanol, propionic acid, benzaldehyde and iso-amyl acetate).

Expression of Gα49BdsRNA.Scer\UAS.1f1 under the control of Scer\GAL4Gα49B.PS in rdgA1 or rdgA3 homozygotes significantly rescues the electroantennogram responses of the homozygotes.

Co-expression of Gα49BdsRNA.Scer\UAS.1f1 reduces the decrease in the amplitude of the electroantennogram in response to a number of odours (ethyl acetate, butanol, propionic acid, benzaldehyde and iso-amyl acetate) that is seen in animals expressing rdgAGD1518 under the control of Scer\GAL4Or83b.2.642.T:Hsim\VP22.
