Site of nucleotide substitution in mutant inferred by FlyBase based on reported amino acid change.
germarium & nuclear chromosome
nurse cell & nuclear chromosome
oocyte & meiosis & nuclear chromosome
In c(3)G68 homozygous females, pachytene oocytes show decreased X and 3rd homologous chromosome pairing, as compared to controls.
c(3)G68 females show frequent meiotic chromosome segregation errors, as assessed by X-chromosome non-disjunction.
Paired homologous chromosomes are only detected in 36.5% of homozygous pro-oocytes and oocytes (in contrast to wild-type cells of which 97.7% contain paired homologs).
Females expressing c(3)GCdel.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Zzzz\FLAG under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16 in a c(3)G68 background show defects in the germ-cell nuclei; a normal synaptonemal complex is not formed.
There is a failure in homolog pairing in X/X females that are homozygous for c(3)G68.
Mutant females can have defects in pairing of chromosome homologs in the oocytes and in some mutant oocyte nuclei, separation of the sister chromatids appears to have occurred. Prepachytene cells in the mutant germarium and nurse cells can also show defects in chromosome homolog pairing.
Exchange on the X chromosome is nearly eliminated in homozygous females.
Oocytes of homozygous females lack synaptonemal complex.
Effects slightly more severe than in c(3)G1. Meiotic recombination absent; first-division nondisjunction and loss high (40% for X, 2 and 3; 30% for 4). Low level of nondisjunction in second meiotic division.
c(2)MZ0810, c(3)G68 has abnormal meiotic cell cycle phenotype
c(3)G68 is a non-suppressor of stage S1 oocyte | increased number phenotype of c(2)MEP2115
c(3)G68; c(2)MZ0810 double mutant females exhibit crossovers at a higher than expected frequency.
