Location data for cbt deletions. - Zhang, P.; Edgar, B. (2021)
cbt[D148] is a simple short deletion, while cbt[D41] has 11 bases (GATGAAATAAT) inserted (or remaining from the P element) at the excision site. Based on our mapping results, cbt[D41] did not impair the first intron but deleted 241nt of the second intron and caused a frameshift of all three isoforms (cbt-RA, cbt-RB, and cbt-RC). cbt[D148] deleted 59nt of the first intron of cbt-RA but did not impinge on cbt-RB and cbt-RC. Following genetic complementation tests indicated that cbt[D41] is a null allele, but cbt[D148] is not. The associated file contains the detailed mapping strategy and sequencing results of both alleles, cbt[D41] and cbt[D148].
