In addition to the point mutation reported in FBrf0133276, a second point mutation is present 31bp 'upstream' of the original missense mutation. This second change is a T to A nucleotide change that results a I to N amino acid substitution.
Amino acid replacement: G120R.

G98R | Dredd-PD; G98R | Dredd-PE; G98R | Dredd-PF; G44R | Dredd-PG
G?R
The mutation was originally reported to lead to a G120R amino acid change. That was based on the use of an upstream ATG start codon. Species conservation data and RNA-seq data support the use of a downstream AUG, in which case the amino acid change is predicted to be G98R for the Dredd-RE isoform.

I87N | Dredd-PD; I87N | Dredd-PE; I87N | Dredd-PF; I33N | Dredd-PG
I?N
The mutation was reported to be an ATT to AAT nucleotide change leading to an Ile to Asn amino achid change. The reported coordinate is one off from the mapped coordinate since the reported coordinate would lead to a silent substitution.
Mutant flies show greatly reduced survival compared to wild type after septic injury with Erwinia carotovora carotovora 15.

DreddD44/DreddD44 is a non-suppressor of eye phenotype of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF, egrUAS.cMa
The increased apoptosis seen in Scer\GAL4nub-AC-62 RYBPScer\UAS.cBa wing discs is completely inhibited in a DreddD44/DreddD44 background.
The small wing size seen in Scer\GAL4unspecified RYBPScer\UAS.cBa wings is rescued in a DreddD44/DreddD44 background.
Homozygosity for DreddD44 does not supress the ablation of adult eye tissue seen in egrScer\UAS.cMa; Scer\GAL4GMR.PF animals.
