Dll cDNA minigene expressed from a Dll promoter including 17.5 kb of 5' flanking region, encompassing both the early (304) and late (215) enhancers.
Confers significant phenotypic rescue of Dll null mutants Keilin's organs.
Dll+m312 partially rescues Df(2R)ED4065/Dll17
Dll+m312 partially rescues Dllunspecified
Some Dll17/Df(2R)ED4065 animals carrying Dll+m312 survive until the pharate adult stage. These animals show severe truncation and malformation of the medial and distal leg segments. The distal tibia and tarsal regions are absent, the femur is shortened and the trochanter is deformed. The bristles on the femur lack bracts, in contrast to wild type. Mechanosensory bristles of the wing margin are missing.
