Conclusions • ry 75/sim. H 9 allelic combination eliminates late sim expression in midline glia and i. VUMs, Hcell sib, and p. MNB • simlate mutants express wrapper, but may have a MG defect. • simlate mutants exhibit ectopic midline axonal projections to the segmental nerve root (likely i. VUM axons) Future Directions • Manipulate Sim function using misexpression of dominant-negative sim constructs; Per-Gal 4 mediated expression could test neuron specific Sim function • en; simlate double mutant to test requirement of sim on formation of ectopic glutamatergic Sim+ neurons ( or use expression of sim dominant-negative constructs in en mutant) • simlate mutants have normal midline Gad 1 expression, but fail to express VGlut in Hcell sib (~70% segments) Identify H-cell sib CRM in VGlut locus and test dependence on Sim and En • Test panel of neuronal/glial markers to identify additional late Sim targets • En misexpression in H-cell sib phenocopies simlate H-cell sib phenotype • Test other H-cell sib TF mutants for VGlut expression • En represses VGlut in GABAergic midline neurons, preventing activation by a TF complex containing Sim. •
