Myc-Fry-GFP expression can rescue the mutant phenotype caused by a loss of function fry mutation. (A) An adult wing containing a fry loss of function mutation clone. Arrow points to a fry mutant cell. Arrowhead points to a wild type cell. (B) Rescue of the fry wing hair phenotype. The genotype of the rescued fly is UAS-Myc-fry-GFP/actin-GAL4; fry¹/fry². Arrow points to the single cell in the field that shows a weak multiple wing hair phenotype. All other cells show complete rescue. (C) Ovaries from wild type and rescued adult flies. C1 and C2 were a pair of ovaries from a wild type female (OreR). C3-C6 were ovaries from rescued female flies (actinGAL4/UAS-Myc-fry-GFP; fry¹/fry²). C3 and C4 were a pair, and C5 and C6 were a second pair. Note that the ovaries from the rescued flies are smaller than normal. The arrow points to a wild type egg and arrowheads point to mutant eggs that are rounder than normal.
