Amino acid replacement: C57Y.
Nucleotide substitution: G?A.
The C57Y substitution is within the 'LIM' domain of the expressed tup product.

Mutants do not show loss of expression of P{FMRFa-EGFP.Tv}, a marker for the six Ap4 neurons in the developing ventral nerve cord.
Many antero-dorsal antennal lobe projection neurons (adPN) in tup1 homozygous somatic clones fail to target the correct glomeruli although in some cases (antennal glomeruli D and VA1d) targeting occur correctly. Mis-targeted dendrites from these neurons frequently end up occupying glomeruli DA1. Many lateral antennal lobe projection neurons (lPN) in these clones are also mis-targeted with a fraction of the dendrites ending up in the subesophageal ganglion and others spread diffusely throughout the antennal lobe. However, targeting of DA1 and DL3 by lPN occurs normally. Targeting of ventral antennal lobe projection neurons (vPN) in these clones occurs normally.
tup1 die as embryos with a prominent dorsal hole.
In tup1 mutant embryos the dorsal trunk is continuous and secondary branching is indistinguishable from wild-type.
The posterior half of the abdomen is folded back on the anterior half, due to a failure of germband retraction, resulting in an eponymous phenotype. At full germband extension A8 is often opposite A2. Head involution fails. Some components of the head skeleton are absent or rudimentary, including the dorsal arms, dorsal bridge and vertical plate. The filzkorper are often widely separated. Anti-β-tubulin staining reveals a premature loss of amnioserosa cells after stage 11. The amnioserosa does not undergo programmed cell death.
Homozygous embryos exhibit an intermediate germband retraction defective phenotype. Kr staining reveals abnormalities in the amnioserosa.
Germband retraction and dorsal closure fail to occur in homozygous embryos.
Nondefective in gonad assembly.
Does not interact with RpII140wimp maternal effect.
Suppression of tor13D embryos: increase in proportion of embryos that formed cuticle and decrease in proportion of embryos that formed empty sacs.
apparently ceases early, resulting in the posteriormost three segments remaining on dorsal side of the embryo. embryonic lethal. Head broad. Germband shortening

Both midgut primordia extend normally along the visceral mesoderm and the yolk is completely engulfed by the endoderm.
