P{PZ} insertion 182 nucleotides upstream of the ATG.
slmb00295 mutant C4da neuron clones exhibit an increase in cell death and die during early metamorphosis.
No defects are seen in axon pruning during metamorphosis.
Homozygotes carrying a single copy of slmbαTub84B.PJ are viable and show normal morphology, 5-10% of adults exhibit duplication of the haltere. Mutant cells undergo only a few divisions and show phenotypes characteristic of ectopic wg and hh signal transduction. Clones in the wing cause generation of ectopic sensory bristles along the wing margin, instead of epidermal hairs. Heterozygotes with slmb1 die as pupae and heterozygotes with slmb2 die during early larval life.
Clones of mutant cells in the leg and wing discs cause outgrowths of slmb+ cells and pattern disruptions including duplicated structures. Outgrowths occur both ventrally and dorsally and both anteriorly and posteriorly.

slmb00295, ago3 double mutant embryos display a disrupted glial pattern compared to single mutant or control embryos. An increase in repo-positive glial cell number is observed. An increase in cell proliferation is observed, and no increase in cell death is seen.
Expression of slmbαTub84B.T:Hsap\MYC in slmb00295, ago3 double mutant embryos significantly suppresses the increased number of glial cells observed in the slmb00295, ago3 mutant embryos.
slmb00295, ago3, gcmN7-4 triple mutants results in the absence of almost all glia, as observed in gcmN7-4 single mutants. One copy of gcmN7-4 suppresses the increased glial cell number phenotype observed in slmb00295, ago3 double mutants.
gcm26 suppresses the increased glial cell number phenotype observed in slmb00295, ago3 double mutants.

Previously assigned as an allele of Atpα in FlyBase (in error). Now known to be an allele of slmb, based on the insertion of the P{PZ} element within the slmb transcription unit, reversion of the mutant phenotype by precise excision of the P{PZ} insertion and rescue of the mutant phenotype by a transgene containing the slmb coding region (see FBrf0100581 and FBrf0104785).
Wild type slmb function can be restored by precise excision of the P{PZ} insertion.
