The accumulation of en-positive granules in the salivary glands is not altered detectably in sec23j13C8 mutants. sec23j13C8 mutants have major defects in cuticular development; the larval cuticles are smaller (on average only 40-50% the length of wild-type) and weaker than the cuticles of their wild-type siblings, the mouthparts and filzkorper are poorly formed, and sec23j13C8 mutants frequently have large holes in the dorsal cuticle. In addition, there appears to be a general defect in patterning of the cuticle, with dorsal and ventral structures appearing more lateralized. The ventral cuticle exhibits a loss of denticles and the denticles that are present have a very light pigmentation, more consistent with the pigmentation found in more lateral denticles of wild-type larvae. The dorsal surfaces of the mutant larvae consist of thin hairs and naked cuticle, an arrangement more typical of dorsal-lateral reiogns of wild-type cuticles.

Separable from: l(3)j13C8j13C8.
The lethality of the "l(3)j13C8" line does not appear to be due to disruption of Sec23 function: the chromosome is not lethal in combination either Sec239G or with Df(3R)ED5187 (a deficiency that deletes Sec23). This suggests that the lethality (represented by l(3)j13C8j13C8) is separable from the P{lacW}Sec23j13C8 insertion in Sec23.
