Imprecise excision of the P{EP}ballEP863 insertion, resulting in a deletion of 1258 nucleotides. The deletion removes most of the ball coding region.
The left breakpoint of the deletion (twenty first deleted nucleotides) is TATACTTGGC CGCTATTTAA, the right breakpoint of the deletion (twenty last deleted nucleotide) is TCACTGGACG AAAAAATCTC (sequence is given in the same orientation as the coding strand of the gene).
Deletion resulting from excision of the P{EP}ballEP863 insertion.
Mature eggs are not recovered from females carrying homozygous germline clones. Homozygous clones are recovered in the eye disc and are similar in size to their wild-type twin clones.
