Notes.—The wupA transcripts are depicted in white or black (A-K) according to their corresponding ATG site (see Fig 2). Every isoform was driven as UAS constructs by tub-Gal4 and a minimum of 100 offspring adults per cross were counted. Black transcript isoforms K, L and M encode the same protein, thus only K was assayed. (a) Rescue is dose dependent; one copy of Dp2 can rescue ♀DL/+ but two copies are needed to rescue ♂DL or ♀DL/DL. In the last case, only escapers are recovered as adults (<1% viability). The same driver was used to co-overexpress several transcripts (C+H, J+F and J+G) but none of these combinations rescued 18242DL neither in males nor in heterozygous females. (b) Rescue of hdp3 by either of these two transcripts was obtained for 25% (B) and 20% (E), respectively. The rescue, however, affected to wing position but not to flight. The joint overexpression of C and H also failed to rescue hdp3.
Abbreviations: Dp1 (duplication 1) = Dp(1;2R) CH322-143G12r; Dp2 (duplication 2) = fosmid, wupA-2XTY1-sGFP-V5-preTEV-BLRP-3XFLAG; Dp3 (duplication 3) = Dp(1;3R) JC153
