Description

Contains a pair of 1.2kb P-elements with a duplicated 2.9kb genomic sequence (containing anon-1Ab) inserted between them.

5.3kb insertion 69bp upstream of the y transcription start site. The insertion contains a central region of 2.9kb genomic DNA flanked by two copies of a 1.2kb deleted P-element, which are arranged in opposite orientations. The direction of transcription of the P-element that is most proximal to the y transcription start site is the same as that of the y gene, while the direction of transcription of the P-element that is most distal to the y transcription start site is opposite to that of the y gene. Neither the whole insertion nor the individual P-elements are flanked by the characteristic base pair duplications that are normally found after P-element insertion. The 2.9kb genomic fragment that is flanked by the P-elements includes sequences that originate from region 1A of the X chromosome in close proximity and distal to the y locus, and some repetitive sequences. It also contains a small putative gene (anon-1Ab) flanked by a TATA box and a polyadenylation site. The gypsy element present in the progenitor y2 allele is still present.

Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Body colour: wild-type pigmentation in the abdomen and bristles.

Body colour: homozygotes have wild-type pigmentation in the body cuticle and wing blade and in the thoracic, leg, wing and abdominal bristles.

Pigmentation of all cuticular structures is normal in hemizygous males. This phenotype is not altered by either mod(mdg4)ul or su(Hw)2.

Additional Comments
Genetic Interactions
Statement
Reference

In the presence of ph-pP1, pigmentation of the body cuticle and wing blade and thoracic, leg and abdominal bristles is reduced. This enhancement by ph-pP1 is completely suppressed by su(Hw)2/su(Hw)V.
