Inversion breaks near the 5' end of the gene between nucleotide -211 in the 5' untranslated sequence and nucleotide 246 in the first exon.
Homozygous adults show no obvious mutant phenotype.
faxM12 Abl1/Df(3L)st-j7 individuals are lethal due to disruptions in the CNS longitudinal and commissural axons. One copy of Abl+mTnabl-lys moderately rescues and one copy of Abl+mTnabl completely rescues the lethality. faxM12 Abl1/In(3L)std11 individuals are also lethal, one copy of Abl+mTnabl rescues and Abl+mTnabl-lys fails to rescue lethality. Presence of NrtM2 does not affect lethality. faxM12 Abl1/Df(3L)st-g24 individuals are weakly viable, this semi-lethality can be alleviated by one copy of Abl+mTnabl. Dosage sensitive interactions exist between faxM12 and NrtM2.
"X ray" was stated as tentative. "ethyl methanesulfonate" was stated as tentative. Haploinsufficiency dependent upon an Abl mutant background (HDA).
