[87E8-87E8];[87F2-87F2];
A set of isogenic deficiency stocks created by FLP-induced recombination between FRT-carrying transgenic insertions; molecularly defined deletion endpoints correspond to initial location of the progenitor insertions. Initial set of 519 isogenic deletions provides 56% genome coverage.
The current Exelixis collection at the Bloomington Stock Center differs from the original described in FBrf0175003 : a significant number were shown not to carry a deletion and have been removed from the collection; a number of stocks have been lost; a number of additional deletions are included that were generated after publication.
87E8;87F2
Breakpoint based on release 3 sequence coordinate from Parks et al., 2004 (FBrf0174230), converted to release 5 coordinate.
This deletion removes a single ribosomal protein-coding gene (though other genes are also removed).
CCHa2CR-1/Df(3R)Exel7320 mid-third instar larvae have significantly reduced body weight compared to controls, the effect is seen in both sexes.
Flies heterozygous for the deletion do not show a Minute bristle phenotype.
Deletion has not been verified by complementation tests or tests for deleted sequences.
