Contains a 31 bp deletion and a 14bp insertion in the 32nd cadherin domain. The consequence of these alterations is to produce a truncated form of the fat protein.
A 31 bp deletion and a 14 bp insertion leads to a frameshift and early translation termination.
In the anterior compartments of the tergites, ft15 somatic clones tend to disturb and reverse polarity behind the clone, while, in the posterior compartments, they tend to reverse in front. However, when anterior ft15 clones abut the compartment boundary they fail to reverse the polarity of posterior compartment cells behind. Similarly, when posterior ft15 clones abut the compartment boundary they fail to reverse the polarity of anterior compartment cells in front.

dsUAO71 ft15 double mutant clones in the dorsal adult abdomen where the clones are also expressing dsecto.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL strongly repolarise hairs behind the clone, reversing their polarity (100% of clones repolarise with a maximum range of up to seven cells). This repolarisation is largely suppressed by co-expression of fjScer\UAS.cZa within the clone (48% of clones show some repolarisation with a range of one to three cells).
dsUAO71 ft15 double mutant clones in the dorsal adult abdomen where the clones are also expressing ftScer\UAS.cMa under the control of Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL cause repolarisation in front of the clones, so that hairs point away from the clone (64% of clones repolarise with a maximum range of seven cells). Co-expression of fjScer\UAS.cZa within these clones strengthens the repolarisation (95% of clones repolarise with a maximum range of seven cells).
