Genetic mapping information
Comments

This deletion removes a single ribosomal protein-coding gene (though other genes are also removed).

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

    Loss of heterozygosity is elevated compared to wild-type in Df(3L)x37/Df(3L)W4 animals. Df(3L)x37/Df(3L)W4 animals have macrochaetae defects (probably due genomic instability resulting in the loss of genetic material at haploinsufficient Minute loci).

    (Brodsky et al., 2000)

    Lethal in combination with Df(3L)GR844X22. Complements Df(3L)Δ26, Df(3L)Δ32, Df(3L)Δ54, Df(3L)Δ215, Df(3L)Δ3002, Df(3L)GR844X31 and Df(3L)GR844X33.

    (Addison et al., 1995)
    NOT in combination with other aberrations

    Flies heterozygous for the deletion do not show a Minute bristle phenotype.

    (Marygold et al., 2007)

    The Df(3L)W4 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).

    (Mason et al., 2004)

    Heterozygosity for Df(3L)W4 results in 0.7% X chromosome nondisjunction and 0.3% fourth chromosome nondisjunction in In(1)FM7/X ; svspa-pol females.

    (Harris et al., 2003)

    Dominantly enhances the KrIf-1/+ eye phenotype.

    (Carrera et al., 1998)

    Shows no maternal enhancement of dpphr4.

    (Nicholls and Gelbart, 1998)

    Midgut development of mutant embryos is wild type.

    (Bilder and Scott, 1995)

    Homozygous embryos are very abnormal compared to wild-type.

    (Harbecke and Lengyel, 1995)

    Heterozygosity for this deletion suppresses the mutant ovarian phenotype of ovoD2.

    (Pauli et al., 1995)

    Number of cells expressing midline glial cell markers in the embryonic CNS is increased by 60%.

    (Sonnenfeld and Jacobs, 1995)

    Homozygotes show the full cell death defective phenotype.

    (White et al., 1994)

    75B puff is unchanged.
