A 2 bp deletion at amino acid position 215 which results in a frame shift and a translational stop 14 amino acids downstream, leading to a truncated protein containing only the first DM14 domain.
A two base pair deletion within amino acid 215 that results in a frameshift and translation termination 14aa downstream. The two deleted bases within the codon were not specified.
Pupal escapers are very rare. l(2)gd11/l(2)gd14 trans-heterozygotes survive to third instar larvae, show an extended larval life and imaginal discs show extensive hyperplasia. Clones in a vg1 homozygous background are recognisable by growths protuding from the wing blade, thus partially restoring the wing pattern by extensions of the wing blade areas (three-fold increase in wing blade area) and a span of clonal tissue in both dorsal and ventral wing surfaces.
l(2)gd11, l(2)gd14, l(2)gd1d7 and l(2)gd1d10 all harbor the same lesion.
