Construct: C terminal deletion: amino acids 258-462 deleted.
Embryos exhibit a cuticular phenotype.
tubptubΔC205 partially rescues tubR5.6
tubptubΔC205 partially rescues Df(3R)XM3/tub3
Injected RNA from this allele rescues phenotype of embryos derived from tub3/Df(3R)XM3 mothers. tub3/Df(3R)XM3 mothers carrying tubptubΔC205 lay eggs with embryos showing dorsolaterally derived filzkorper and ventrally derived denticle belts.
Carried in plasmid used to generate RNA for injection-rescue experiments.
