Statement
Reference
roo element insertion (of at least 7.2kb) in exon 3. The roo element is inserted in the opposite orientation with respect to the Hn gene. A 24bp deletion has also occurred in intron 1.

hide Detailed Description
Statement
Reference
Hn[bp]/Hn[r3] flies have purple eyes.
Has 10% of wild type levels of phenylalanine hydroxylase enzyme activity and correspondingly reduced CRM.
Homozygotes of Hnr3 and ry6 viable. Eye colour: dull chocolate; classification easier than for Hnr.
Seventy-nine percent normal red pigment, 100% normal brown pigment.
Eye color autonomous in transplants of optic disk into wild-type hosts.
More extreme than Hnr2.
