Description

Insertion of a roo element between base pairs 2298 and 2299, in the fourth intron near the splice donor site. The direction of transcription of the roo element is the same as that of the v gene.

Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Synthesis of 3-hydroxykynurenine (3-HK) is essentially eliminated in v36f mutant flies at day one post-eclosion, whereas kynurenic acid (KYNA) levels increased, leading to a dramatic decrease in the 3-HK/KYNA ratio.

Eye colour: peach. Some individuals transformed with P{YC1.8} survive to adulthood and most are fertile, transformants have a dull red eye colour phenotype.

Ocellus colour: colourless.

Eye colour: vermilion.

Fly from starved larva does not form brown eye pigment.

Malpighian tubule colour: pale yellow.

Eye colour: bright red; may be slightly more yellow than v1. RK1.

Homozygous v36f partially suppresses the rhabdomere degeneration seen in one day old flies when Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1p.Scer\UAS is expressed under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155. Some rescue, albeit reduced, is also seen at seven days post-eclosion. Partial rescue is also seen with v36f/+. The increase in 3-hydroxykynurenine (3-HK)/kynurenic acid (KYNA) ratio is also significantly suppressed with either homozygous or heterozygous v36f, with flies exhibiting ratios that are similar to those seen in homozygous v36f mutant flies alone.
