C11258382T
R585C | ab-PA; R575C | ab-PB; R575C | ab-PD; R575C | ab-PF
The amino acid position of the mutation is reported with respect to ab-PA.
Severe wing venation defect when heterozygous with ab94. During embryogenesis the SNb axons pause at the edge of muscle 13 and form abnormal branches, instead of forming their wild type axonal extensions onto the muscle fibers. These aberrant branches wander over the prospective target muscles and occasionally form connections at ectopic sites. Mutants do not establish the three branched terminal arbor on muscles 7, 6, 13 and 12. The transverse nerve is often incomplete and invades the ventral muscle field. A few muscles (3, 5, 11, 20) show variably penetrant defects in their attachment to the epidermis, and variable defects in the location of their attachments.
