P{lacW} insertion is within 1kb of the transcribed region.
head & macrochaeta
scutum & macrochaeta
scutum & microchaeta
Mild defects in grooming behaviour. Also subtle changes in the external structure of sensory receptors; producing thinner and shorter macrochaetae on notum and head, occasional loss of notal macrochaetae and mild reduction in the number of notal microchaetae. ctp1/ctpe73 and ctp1/Df(1)RC40 transheterozygotes are semi-viable and exhibit the same macro- and microchaetae embryonic phenotype as the homozygote.
ctp1 is an enhancer of phenotype of ctunspecified
Enhances the phenotype of alleles of the Lethal I class of ct mutations.
Excision alleles have been generated, several are lethal, others show gross defects in bristles and the ocelli.
ctp1 interacts with genes of the ac-sc complex and has a non-additive interaction with eppy.
Excision of the P{lacW} insertion recovered lethal alleles, viable alleles with mutant bristle phenotypes and wild-type revertants.
