[79B2-79B2];[79D1-79D1];
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.
79B2;79D1
Breakpoint based on release 3 sequence coordinate from Thibault et al., 2004, Supplementary Table 2 (FBrf0174227) or 3 (FBrf0174228), converted to release 5 coordinate.
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}BSC249 was verified using the PCR methods and primers described in FBrf0175003.
The cytological breakpoints of Df(3L)BSC249 predicted from the insertion sites of the progenitor transposable elements P{XP}RpLP0d09567 and PBac{WH}olf413f02553 using Release 4 are 79B2;79D2. The presence of a deletion was confirmed cytologically, though the breakpoints were not analyzed in detail.
