Comment:

G to A nucleotide change at the second or third position of the wild type Trp codon leads to a nonsense mutation (exact site of mutation unspecified). The mutation was annotated at the second base of the codon.

Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Npc1b1/Npc1bR9-28 animals die at the second instar larval stage and are able to survive for at least a week as second instar larvae.

The ratio of absorbed cholesterol:glucose is severely reduced in Npc1b1 first instar larvae relative to wild type.

The l(1)19Ec8 allele interacts with shakB3 and shakB1; the response to sucrose of shakB3 l(1)19Ec8 flies is comparable to shakB3 homozygotes and the response to sucrose of shakB2 l(1)19Ec8 flies is intermediate between that of shakB2 heterozygotes and homozygotes.

l(1)19Ec-/shakB- heterozygotes are fully viable and exhibit no neuronal defects.

Homozygous germline clones display rescuable maternal effect lethality. Embryos derived from heterozygous mothers exhibit head and dorsal closure defects.

Maternal germline clonal analysis demonstrates a maternal effect, twisted embryos with holes in the cuticle. This phenotype is rescuable by introduction of the wild-type copy of the gene from the father.
