Comments

The loxP cassette containing the mini-w marker and GAL4 coding region has been excised, leaving a single loxP site in its place.

Affected Genes Inferred by Location (0)
    If no genes are listed here, it may be because the affected region is very large. The JBrowse insert above may show an error for the same reason, and other FlyBase tools such as CytoSearch may also fail for large regions. You can contact FlyBase for more help.
    In these cases, there will be no "Export to Hitlist" button to the left.
    Phenotypic Data
    In combination with other aberrations
    NOT in combination with other aberrations

    Homozygous viable and fertile. The circadian period of mutant flies is approximately 30 minutes shorter than that of wild-type controls.

    Mutant flies infected with an attenuated strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA14 plcs) at ZT17 (the reported peak survival time in a circadian cycle) show substantially lower bacterial titers 24 hours post-infection compared to control flies. Mutant flies infected with PA14 plcs at different ZTs show a dramatically shifted survival curve 48 hours post-infection compared to wild-type controls.

    Mutant flies show a decrease in food consumption after starvation compared to controls. The flies appear hyperactive compared to control flies immediately after transfer from starvation to food vials.

    Feeding rhythms under light-dark conditions are altered in mutant flies: the mutant flies show a reduced dawn peak and a larger secondary peak compared to wild type.
