Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

exba1/exba2 primary neuronal cultures show normal microtubule organization but a significant reduction in filopodia number.

In exba1/exba2 embryos, the pCC axon aberrantly crosses the midline in 18% of CNS segments.

Additional Comments
Genetic Interactions
Statement
Reference

shotSF20/+ exba2/+ primary neuronal cultures show a strong reduction in filopodia number, whereas controls heterozygous for only one of these genes display normal filopodia.

The axon midline phenotype of sli2/+ embryos is enhanced in sli2/+; exba2/+ and shot3/+, sli2/+ double mutants. The phenotype is further enhanced in shot3/+, sli2/+; exba2/+ triple mutants.

The frequency of aberrant pCC axon midline crossovers in shot3/+; exba1/exba2 and shot3/shot3; exba2/+ double mutant embryos is significantly greater than in either single mutant homozygous embryos. The midline crossing phenotype is slightly more severe in shot3/shot3; exba1/exba2 embryos compared to shot3/shot3; exba2/+ embryos, while shot3/+; exba2/+ embryos show no significant midline defects.

The pCC axon midline crossing phenotype of robo2 embryos is dramatically enhanced in robo2/+; exba2/+ embryos and in shot3, robo2/+ embryos. The phenotype is further enhanced in shot3, robo2/+; exba2/+ embryos.
