Comments on Cytology

The Df(2R)44CE deficiency, previously thought to be a simple two break event is, on closer inspection, a four break event resulting in two closely linked deficiencies. Deleted segments are 44C1--44C2 and 44D3--44E4.

FlyBase curator comment: See FBrf0144960 for further description of cytology.

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.
    Phenotypic Data
    In combination with other aberrations
    NOT in combination with other aberrations

    The Df(2R)44CE chromosome does not act as a dominant 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).

    Heterozygosity for Df(2R)44CE results in 8.1% X chromosome nondisjunction and 3.5% fourth chromosome nondisjunction in In(1)FM7/X ; svspa-pol females.

    Does not cause unconditional lethality in hybrid females when heterozygous with D.simulans chromosome.

    No second site non-complementing phenotype with zipEbr and zipmhc-c6.1.

    Shows no maternal enhancement of dpphr4.

    Homozygotes show unusually disperse germ cells. Heterozygotes with Df(2R)cn9 exhibit aberrant migration of the germ cell. Homozygotes also exhibit segment polarity phenotype of ptc.

    Dominantly suppresses female-specific lethality of scsisB-1 and da1 mutations.

    Midgut development of mutant embryos is wild type.
