2kb deletion which removes the majority of the YME1L coding region. Generated by imprecise excision of the progenitor P{SUPor-P}YME1LKG01861 insertion.
Homozygotes (zygotically mutant) have a markedly reduced lifespan compared to controls, which is reduced even further if they are also derived from homozygous females.
Young homozygous flies appear similar to controls in a climbing test and bang sensitivity assay.
Homozygous adults show a number of age-dependent phenotypes, including defects in climbing ability, bang sensitivity and neurodegeneration of photoreceptor neurons (shown by progressive loss of rhabdomeres).
Homozygous adults show mitochondrial defects in the indirect flight muscles: the cristae are misoriented and are often loosely packed. Swollen mitochondria are also seen. These defects become more severe as the flies age and in addition, the mitochondria in aged flies (3 weeks old) contain electron-dense structures.
Apoptotic cell death is seen in the indirect flight muscles and in the photoreceptors of aged homozygous flies.
