Lecture 3 • Cell Biology of Drosophila Development • Drosophila Genetics • Screen for Zygotic Lethals • Screen for Maternal Effect Mutants
Lab 3 Engrailed staining Elyse will open the teaching lab at 9:00AM Read instructions in manual and on the board in the lab If you start at 9:00AM you can be finished by about 4:00PM Get yourselves organized or it will be a very long day.
Next week’s reading DiNardo paper is missing a page and pages 1222 and 1223 are reversed. Can get the missing page on the web site.

The Drosophila life cycle represents the differentiation of two distinct forms: the larva and the Imago (adult). Embryogenesis: differentiation of the larva Metamorphosis: differentiation of the imago (adult) Imaginal cells are the cells of the adult or imago. Kalthoff 2001

Properties of Balancer Chromosomes • Multiple inversions to suppress the recovery of recombinants. • Recessive visible markers • Dominant visible marker(s) • Second and Third balancers homozygous lethal; first chromosome balancers homozygous female sterile.
Balancer chromosomes Balancer homolog Both the balancer and homolog chromosomes segregate as single mendelian units: the chromosome is a stable genetic unit.
Maternal versus Zygotic genomes Sperm Paternal genome Zygote and Zygotic genome Maternal genome Oogenesis
Screens for Pattern Formation Mutants Zygotic lethal screens: screens for activities expressed from the zygotic genome required for correct pattern formation. Maternal effect screens: screens for activities expressed from the maternal genome required for correct pattern formation.
Basic steps of a screen 1 Mutagenesis 2 Separating the mutant chromosomes 3 Amplifying the mutant chromosomes 4 Testing for mutant phenotypes

Zygotic screen F2-F3 cn bwsp*/CyO 5,764 F2 Males and females F3 started the testing Screen for vials that have no white eyed flies. F3 4,217 * mutagenized chromosome
F3 tests The 4,217 F3 flies were allowed to lay eggs CyO/CyO larvae die after hatching Screen for >25% unhatched eggs 2,843 lines had > 25% unhatched eggs Test for cuticle defects 272 lines had distinct cuticular changes
Complementation analysis The 272 mutants identified 61 complementation groups (genes).

Maternal effect screen Trudi Schupbach screen on the second chromosome. Beautiful design: avoids having to sort the flies and collect virgins once the mutagenized chromosomes have been separated.
