| Comments | Left (3C1-2) breakpoint at -24.5 kb in the restriction map of the w locus (0 point at site of the copia insertion in wa); right (20F) breakpoint near 5' end of a Type I mobile element (Tartof et al., 1984). Left breakpoint less than 3kb distal to the w-a copia insertion (Pirrotta et al., 1983). Breakpoint(s) molecularly mapped | ||
Comments on Cytology

Limits of break 1 from polytene analysis (FBrf0018623) Limits of break 2 from polytene analysis (FBrf0040503) Proximal breakpoint defines the distal boundary of the bb locus. Distal inversion breakpoint is ~20kb from the 3' end of the w locus, the proximal inversion breakpoint is within centric heterochromatin distal to bb. Heterochromatic breakpoint is flanked by a Type I mobile element (FBrf0040503). | |||

| NOT in combination with other aberrations | Tn10\tetRey.3.5.T:Hsim\VP16-mediated expression of Hsap\HMGIYMATH20.Tn10\tetO in In(1)wm4 flies results in significant derepression of the w gene and a general loss of the variegating phenotype. Tetracycline treatment inhibits Hsap\HMGIYMATH20.Tn10\tetO-induced suppression of PEV. Tn10\tetRey.3.5.T:Hsim\VP16-mediated expression of Hsap\HMGIYMATH11.Tn10\tetO in In(1)wm4 flies results in no significant derepression of the w gene, no loss of the variegating phenotype. z+ In(1)wm4 flies reared at 25oC have dark red/brown mottled eyes. z1 In(1)wm4 males and females have fewer red/brown patches on a lighter background, paired copies of In(1)wm4 are not repressed to z eye colour (lemon yellow). Repression of In(1)wm4 by z1 cannot be restored by Su(var)205. zv77h In(1)wm4 females and males have almost bleached white eye colour with a few scattered red facets, Su(var)205 only moderately suppresses PEV. Carnitine compounds (L-Carnitine, L-Acetylcarnitine and L-Propionylcarnitine) show a significant suppression on w variegation. Butyrate gives a weaker suppression. In males the suppression effect of the compounds was seen at all concentrations, but in females the effect is weak and is only seen with high concentrations. Enhances the expression of PgdA in larvae and adults. Eyes have a "sectored" phenotype - ommatidia are either fully pigmented or not pigmented at all. Males and homozygous females are viable and fertile. Variegated eye phenotype is enhanced in the presence of mod(mdg4)ul, mod(mdg4)u2 and mod(mdg4)B2, eyes appear yellow with orange spots. In the presence of su(Hw)MC the phenotype is no longer enhanced and the eye phenotype returns to wild type. These results indicate that the variegating phenotype is caused by the su(Hw) protein. | ||

A strongly variegating line has been designated In(1)wm4h. X ray-induced revertants of In(1)wm4 may or may not carry a segment of flanking heterochromatin: variegation is not controlled from immediately adjacent heterochromatic sequences at the euchromatin/ heterochromatin border but from a site more internal to the heterochromatin domain. w transvection is eliminated by PEV. The presence of a variegating chromosome and a modifier chromosome in the same parental genome can alter the amount the amount of variegation formed in the progeny. The genomic imprinting is not determined by the parental origin of the variegating chromosome but is instead determined by the genetic background the variegating chromosome is subjected to during gametogenesis. | |||
