(c, d) dRag GTPases positively regulate larval fat body cell size. (c) Cell area of clonally-induced dRagA-expressing cells or dRagC homozygous mutant cells relative to neighbouring wild-type control cells is shown. Cell area was determined from phalloidin-stained fixed fat body samples from fed or 48 h starved larvae. Expression of dRagAWT or dRagAQ61L significantly increased relative cell area under starvation but not fed conditions. Cells expressing dRagAT61N and dRagC loss-of-function cells were significantly smaller than control cells only under nutrient replete conditions. Data are means ± s.d., *P = 2.04 × 10−3 (n = 5), **P = 2.94 × 10−6 (n = 14), ***P = 3.79 × 10−7 (n = 14), ****P = 1.36 × 10−5 (n = 30), Student's two-tailed t-test. (d) Representative examples of fat body cells with altered dRagA activity. Cells expressing dRagA transgenes are marked by the expression of GFP in the left and middle panels, and dRagC homozygous mutant cells are marked by absence of GFP in the right panel. Scale bar represents 50 μm.
