Insertion of an I-element.
I-element insertion.
A full length I-element is inserted into the 5th intron at position -1448 (FBrf0041384). The transcriptional orientation of the I-element is opposite to that of the w locus.
Insertion into non-translated region of the w gene.
Antiparallel I-element insertion into intron 5.
Insertion of I-element.
I element insertion.
An I-element maps either at the site of mutation or within less than 0.02 map units.
5.4kb I-element insertion map site (kb): -1.45; Origin = insertion of wa copia; '-' values to left (telomere) end; '+' values to right (centromere) end.
Flies have red-brown eyes.
Eye colour: brownish at 20oC and a lighter colour at 25oC.
wIR1 has abnormal eye color phenotype, enhanceable by Kr-h105208
wIR1 has abnormal eye color | recessive phenotype, suppressible by Rga[+]/Rga03834
wIR1 has abnormal eye color | recessive phenotype, suppressible by Low1
wIR1 has pigment cell phenotype, suppressible by Rga[+]/Rga03834
wIR1 has pigment cell phenotype, suppressible by Low1
Pelisson.
Somewhat unstable under IR dysgenic conditions.
Used to test PCR amplification between gene-specific primers and I-element primers.
The I-element insertion in wIR1 interferes with the normal processing of w gene transcripts.
