Ddc DNA coordinates from Gilbert, Hirsh and Wright, 1984, Genetics 106: 679-84: Distal breakpoint within the Ddc gene between +1.4 and 2.4 kb removing the first 5' exon

Comments on Cytology

Ref: Lindsley and Zimm, 1992

Distal breakpoint is within Ddc transcription unit.

Left limit of break 1 from polytene analysis (FBrf0056107) Right limit of break 1 from polytene analysis (FBrf0080145) Left limit of break 2 from polytene analysis (FBrf0035993) Right limit of break 2 from polytene analysis (FBrf0056107)

Affected Genes Inferred by Location (0)
    If no genes are listed here, it may be because the affected region is very large. The JBrowse insert above may show an error for the same reason, and other FlyBase tools such as CytoSearch may also fail for large regions. You can contact FlyBase for more help.
    In these cases, there will be no "Export to Hitlist" button to the left.

    The Df(2L)VA17 chromosome acts as a dominant weak suppressor of telomeric silencing (assayed using the effect of the chromosome on the eye colour phenotype of flies carrying "P{wvar}KR3-2", a stable "brown-red" variant of the P{3'WP-2,wvar}2Lt insertion), but this is a false positive result (the suppressor is not within the bounds of the deficient region) because the region of the deficiency is covered by one or more nonsuppressing deficiencies.

    "37C1--2;37F5--38A11" was stated as revision. 37C1-37C2 breakpoint is between position +2.8 and +3.5 on the Ddc map relative to the HpaI restriction site near the 3' end of Ddc.

    Distal breakpoint of Df(2L)VA17 maps within the Ddc gene.

    "γ ray" was stated as tentative. "ethyl methanesulfonate" was stated as tentative.
