Neuron-specific expression of ZC3H14-iso1 can rescue viability defects of homozygous dNab2nullflies. (A) The percentage of adult flies eclosed (relative to expected Mendelian ratios) for each of the indicated genotypes is summarized. Genotypes are as follows: dNab2 null (dNab2ex3/dNab2ex3), +dNab2 transgene alone (UAS-dNab2Flag/+;;dNab2ex3/dNab2ex3), +dNab2 expressed in neurons (UAS-dNab2Flag/elav-GAL4;;dNab2ex3/dNab2ex3), +ZC3H14-iso1 transgene alone (UAS-ZC3H14-iso1Flag/+;;dNab2ex3/dNab2ex3), +ZC3H14-iso1 expressed in neurons (UAS-ZC3H14-iso1Flag/elav-GAL4;;dNab2ex3/dNab2ex3), +ZC3H14-iso4 transgene alone (+/+ or +/Y;UAS-ZC3H14-iso4Flag/+;;dNab2ex3/dNab2ex3), +ZC3H14-iso4 expressed in neurons (elav-GAL4/+ or elav-GAL4/Y;UAS-ZC3H14-iso4Flag/+;dNab2ex3/dNab2ex3). (B) Anti-Flag immunoblots to detect pan-neuronal (using elav-GAL4) expression of the UAS-dNab2Flag, UAS-ZC3H14-iso1Flag, and UAS-ZC3H14-iso4Flag transgenes in fly heads. The blot on the right corresponding to ZC3H14 iso4 is a darker exposure (as indicated) due to lower-level expression of ZC3H14 iso4 relative to ZC3H14 iso1. The dNab2 band, which is the same band but shown at the different exposures, for both ZC3H14-iso1 and ZC3H14-iso4, illustrates the relative levels of exposure. Control flies expressing Gal4 only are also shown. The approximate position of molecular weight markers is indicated to the right.
