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.
Breakpoint from FlyBase's release 5 sequence location of progenitor insertion.
Df(2R)BSC770 heterozygotes do not show climbing or wing posture defects, as compared to controls.
The presence of P+PBac{XP5.WH5}BSC770 was verified using the PCR methods and primers described in FBrf0175003.
The cytological breakpoints of Df(2R)BSC770 predicted from the Release 5 genomic coordinates of the progenitor PBac{WH}CG2970f02243 and P{XP}tsrd05545 transposable element insertion sites are 60A13;60B5.
