The 2R:24976456..25061964 release 6 coordinates of the right breakpoint are estimates. The left extent corresponds to the left end of emp. Tests at the Bloomington Stock Center showed PCR primers within emp were not amplified from Df(2R)M60E. The right extent corresponds to the left end of gsb, which published results say is not deleted.
This deletion removes multiple ribosomal protein-coding genes (in addition to other genes).
Df(2R)M60E dominantly enhances the transformation of arista to leg phenotype seen in Df(2R)Dll-MP heterozygotes.
Df(2R)M60E/In(2LR)bwV32g good viability (Campos-Ortega and Waitz, 1978).
Flies heterozygous for the deletion show a Minute bristle phenotype.
The Df(2R)M60E 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)M60E results in 0.5% X chromosome nondisjunction and 0.0% fourth chromosome nondisjunction in In(1)FM7/X ; svspa-pol females.
Shows no maternal enhancement of dpphr4.
Dominantly causes tergite defects in less than 50% of run3 heterozygotes.
Minute mutations, which slow the rate of cell division, partially restore a transvection effect that is disrupted by an inversion breakpoint.
Deficient embryos show an uninterpretable mutant midgut phenotype.
Homozygous embryos are very abnormal compared to wild-type.
Heterozygosity for this deletion has no effect on the mutant ovarian phenotype of ovoD2.
Homozygotes lack a putative sodium channel at the 60E region. Homozygotes exhibit normal neurotoxin sensitivity suggesting other sodium channels are present in the embryonic neuron of homozygotes.
Minute phenotype is not suppressed by RpL32+t3.3.
Heterozygotes have shorter bristles than wild type flies. Eclosion is delayed by 49 hours.
Fairly strong Minute; slow development; good viability and fertility. Eclosion of Df(2R)M60E/+ delayed 49 hours (Ferrus, 1975).
