Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Orct2EP1072 embryos show the characteristic U-shape phenotype of embryos unable to retract the germ band.

Orct2R106/Orct2EP1072 adult flies do not show any growth defect when raised at 25oC. When raised at 18oC, Orct2R106/Orct2EP1072 flies are smaller than wild-type flies.

Selected as: a P{EP} insertion line that modifies the pnrMD237/+ phenotype when expressed using Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237.

Comments
Comments

The orientation of the P{EP}EP1072EP1072 element is opposite to the direction of Orct2 transcription. Precise excision of the P{EP} element reverts the modifying effect of EP1072EP1072 on the rough eye phenotype caused by expression of Hsap\MAPTV337M.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF.

Although this insertion is somewhat upstream of the Orct2 gene, Orct2 mRNA expression is reduced in flies carrying the insertion and Orct2 expression can be driven using the Scer\GAL4Orct2-R107 driver. The phenotype of Orct2EP1072 mutants is similar to mutants carrying other Orct2 alleles.
