[79A3-79A3];[79B3-79B3];
A set of ~800 largely 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. Designed to fill gaps in deletion coverage and breakpoint placement; also used to replace older available deficiencies that have not been molecularly mapped.
79A3;79B3
Breakpoint from FlyBase's release 5 sequence location of progenitor insertion.
This deletion removes a single ribosomal protein-coding gene (though other genes are also removed).
Flies heterozygous for the deletion do not show a Minute bristle phenotype.
The presence of P+PBac{XP5.WH5}BSC223 was verified using the PCR methods and primers described in FBrf0175003.
The cytological breakpoints of Df(2L)BSC223 predicted from the Release 4 genomic coordinates of the transposable element insertions sites using are 79A3;79B3.
