Excision mutagenesis of P{EP}HerpEP2450 generates Herp29c2, which lacks the 5' UTR, first, and second exons of Herp.

viable
Herp29c2 mutants do not exhibit any obvious phenotype when maintained at 25oC.
Exposure of Herp29c2 flies to 60mM tunicamycin, an inhibitor of protein N-glycosylation and an ER stress inducer, results in 27% survival after 72 hours.
