scsisB-1; l(1)schb.PP and sisA1; schb.PP embryos lack posterior Sxl expression.
Interacts with RpII140wimp maternal effect.
Female embryos hemizygous for sisA1 show 100% lethality.
Homozygous females die but hemizygous males and heterozygous females fully viable; females die as embryos and larvae; rare morphologically normal and fertile escapers observed at lower temperatures. Single extant allele hypomorphic; locus also defined by dominant behavior of deficiencies and duplications. Dominant lethal for females simultaneously heterozygous for sis-b- or Sxl- or whose mothers are heterozygous for da-. Magnitude of female-lethal dominant synergism sensitive to genetic background, but can be very high. Lethal interactions are generally less severe at lower culture temperatures. Constitutive allele, SxlM1, suppresses female lethality of sis-a homozygote or of any heterozygous combination of mutant alleles or deficiencies of these four genes. Duplication of Sxl+ also suppresses, but less effectively. Female-lethal interactions between sis-a and Sxl mutations display remarkably similar Sxl allele specificity to those between maternal da and zygotic Sxl mutations, indicating that da and sis-a disrupt the same aspect of Sxl regulation. Oogenesis normal for homozygous sis-a germ-line clones induced by mitotic recombination; no maternal effect in homozygous germ-line clones. Sexual phenotype of 2X:3A animals extremely sensitive to sis-a+ dose (more male at lower temperatures) and like da and Sxl-, shows masculinizing interaction with autosomal male-specific lethal mutations but no increase in viability of escapers; nevertheless, sexual phenotype of homozygous sis-a clones generated by mitotic recombination normal. Female-lethal effects caused by decrease in sis-a function have their complement in male-lethal interactions caused by increase in sis-a function (duplications). Male lethality is increased as Sxl+ dose or sis-b+ dose is increased and is suppressed by loss-of-function Sxl mutations. The dose-dependent interactions of this gene with Sxl+ identify it as part of the numerator of what has been called the X/A balance, the primary sex-determination signal--a character it shares with sis-b.

scsisB-1 sisA1/+ females show reduced viability compared to their male siblings.
One maternally-derived copy of either mle1, msl-1L60, msl-21 or msl-31 significantly reduces the viability of scsisB-1 sisA1/+ females so that they show almost complete lethality. One paternally-derived copy of either mle1, msl-1L60, msl-21 or msl-31 significantly reduces the viability of scsisB-1 sisA1/+ females, although this zygotic effect is generally weaker than the maternal one.
The viability of sisA1/+ females is significantly reduced if they also carry one maternally-derived copy of msl-31.
One paternally-derived copy of mof2, roX1ex6 or roX2unspecified reduces the viability of scsisB-1 sisA1/+ females.
The almost complete lethality of scsisB-1 sisA1/+ females carrying a maternally-derived copy of msl-31 is significantly rescued (to 72.8% viability) by a maternally-derived copy of SxlM1.
Maternal heterozygosity for Bap601 reduces the viability of female offspring which are doubly heterozygous for sisA1 upd1sisC-1.
Maternal heterozygosity for Bap601 reduces the viability of female offspring which are heterozygous for sisA1.
