R145term
Site of nucleotide substitution in mutant inferred by FlyBase based on reported amino acid change.
Compared to wild type (pupate around day 5, eclose around day 10), Tcs3331/Df(3L)ED220 exhibit an extended larval period prior to lethality (viability: 93% at day 8, 50% at day 16) and have melanotic masses ('black spots': 26% at day 8, 58% at day 16); larvae are small and unable to dig into food.
Df(3L)ED220/Tcs3331 is rescued by Tcs3GFP(S65T)
Df(3L)ED220/Tcs3331 is rescued by Tcs3+tLa
Tcs3T:Avic\GFP-S65T or Tcs3+tLa rescues Tcs3331/Df(3L)ED220 to adult viability and no melanotic masses are seen in rescued animals.
