Imprecise excision of P{EP}Gβ13FEP1071 resulted in deletion of a 3' portion of the original P element along with adjacent DNA including the entire AlkB gene as well the 5' untranslated region of Myb.

Embryos derived from females carrying homozygous MybMH107 germline clones crossed to wild type males are able to hatch at a similar rate to wild type.
MybMH107 mutant neuroblasts display characteristics of chromosome condensation and are dramatically delayed in prometaphase/metaphase with persistently abnormal spindles. The initially bipolar spindle poles migrate abnormally, and the spindle itself is often rotated, bowed and/or mis-attached.
Mosaic analysis in third instar larval imaginal eye discs of MybMH107 mutant clones and adjacent twin spots does not reveal any abnormalities associated with the mutant cells regarding cell size and cell number as well as cell doubling time. In MybMH107 mutant clones in larval brain, neither S phase nor M phase are altered, nor is there an unusual overlap of DNA synthesis and chromosome condensation. MybMH107 mutant cells contribute to normal appearing clones in pupal and adult eyes. Eyes composed of entirely of MybMH107 mutant cells appear normal.
Examination of MybMH107 mutant eye and wing imaginal discs reveals an increased frequency of cells with condensed chromosomes compared to controls. In MybMH107 mutant wing imaginal discs, small clustered masses of partially condensed chromatin are observed. Many individual nuclei contain several condensed masses adjacent to and within a single nuclear envelope, consistent with arrest and /or delay in early prophase.
The apoptotic response to ionizing radiation appears normal in MybMH107 mutant wing imaginal disc cells.
Homozygous larvae are completely devoid of crystal cells and plasmatocyte numbers are reduced. The lymph glands of homozygous third instar larvae are undersized compared to those of control animals. The reduced number of hemocytes in the lymph gland have aberrant nuclei. Somatic clones of homozygous hemocytes can be recovered and are seen both in the lymph gland and in the hemolymph. These hemocytes show a phagocytosis defect, showing a 57-68% decrease in phagocytosis compared to control cells.
Homozygous clones in stage 10 egg chambers do not contain subnuclear foci of BrdU incorporation in contrast to surrounding normal cells. Homozygous MybMH107 clones (Df(1)MH107 clones in which AlkB function has been rescued by AlkB+t9.8) in the region of the egg chamber normally responsible for dorsal appendage formation result in greatly reduced dorsal appendages. The chorion is missing under the mutant follicle cell patch.
Late third instar MybMH107 mutant wing discs have a lower proportion of cells with G2 DNA content than wild-type. These mutant wing discs also exhibit a 2-3 fold increase in the number of cells with condensed chromosomes compared to wild-type. In many cases the chromosomes in mutant cells become "hyper-condensed". Some mutant cells exhibit overlap between M-phase and S phase: chromsome condensation and DNA replication can be detected in the same cells. There is also a substantial increase in apoptosis in MybMH107 mutant discs. MybMH107 mutant cells in the third instar larval brain with condensed chromosomes often contain one or no centrosomes. Centromeres are formed in these mutant cells, but they exhibit a variety of abnormalities, including monopolar spindle attachement, multipolar spindles and abnormalities in ploidy: about 5% of all mutant mitoses are aneuploid and 1-2% are polyploid. There is also a decrease in the proportion of cells in anaphase in MybMH107 mutant third instar larval brains to 4%, compared with 9% in wild-type.

Homozygous MybMH107 does not suppress the eye phenotypes seen in lin-5293 mutant eye clones.
Homozygous mip1301-36 suppresses the eye phenotypes seen in MybMH107, lin-5293 double mutant clones. The resulting triple mutant eyes appear completely normal.
Approximately 2% of embryos derived from females carrying homozygous lin-5293 MybMH107 double mutant germline clones crossed to wild type males are able to hatch, a similar rate to when females are maternally mutant for lin-5293 alone.
Hemocytes in the secondary lymph gland lobes of hopTum MybMH107 double mutant larvae fail to overproliferate and do not adopt the flattened shape characteristic of differentiated lamellocytes. Abnormal differentiation of lamellocytes is not seen in the secondary lymph gland lobes of Tl8 MybMH107 double mutant larvae. The lymph gland hemocytes fail to overproliferate in the double mutant larvae.
Expression of Ggal\B-MybScer\UAS.cDa under the control of Scer\GAL4e33C restores circulating crystal cells and crystal cells in the lymph gland in homozygous MybMH107 larvae. The mutant phenotype seen in the MybMH107 lymph glands are also rescued by expression of Ggal\B-MybScer\UAS.cDa under the control of Scer\GAL4e33C. Expression of Ggal\c-MybScer\UAS.cDa or Ggal\A-MybScer\UAS.cDa under the control of Scer\GAL4e33C does not rescue circulating crystal cells in MybMH107 larvae.
