gypsy insertion in the 5' untranslated region.
Myo31DFsouther mutants exhibit recessive left-right symmetry defects in the embryonic midgut and hindgut. In contrast, the foregut of Myo31DFsouther mutant embryos show normal handedness, indicating that these left-right defects are heterotaxic. In addition, in adult Myo31DFsouther mutant flies, the laterality of the testis and hindgut is reversed.
75.7% of homozygous embryos show synchronous inversion of the normal left-right asymmetry of the midgut and hindgut, such that in these embryos the midgut and hindgut are a mirror image of those in wild-type embryos. The handedness of the foregut is normal in these embryos.
The normal left-right asymmetry of the hindgut is inversed in 40.7% of homozygous adults, while in 29.6% of cases the hindgut is deformed. The handedness of the spiral of the testis is reversed in 73.7% of homozygous males, while in 18.4% of cases the testis is deformed.
