Amino acid replacement: Y646A.
The Y646A mutation is within TM domain 7.
Scer\GAL4twi.PB/foiY646A.UAS.Tag:HA partially rescues foi20.71
Expression of the foiY646A.Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 transgene, under the control of Scer\GAL4twi.PB, rescues the defective gonad compaction phenotype of foi20.71 mutants. However, this transgene does not rescue the germ cell ensheathment phenotype displayed by foi20.71 mutants.
Carried in a plasmid and transfected into S2 cells to study the subcellular localization of the expressed product.
