D1464Y
Homozygous larvae are able to pupariate, but die prior to eclosion.
The brains of homozygous, woc964/Df(3R)mbtP and woc964/wocrgl larvae show a high frequency of telomere-telomere attachments compared to controls. Single telomere attachments in which a single telomere fuses with its sister telomere, or in which a single telomere fuses with another single nonsister telomere are both seen. Double telomere attachments, where a pair of sister telomeres join with another pair are seen; both monocentric ring chromosomes and linear dicentric chromosomes are seen. In addition, multiple double telomere attachments, resulting in multicentric rings or linear chromosomes, are also seen. The average number of telomere-telomere attachments per cell is 1.82 in homozygotes, 1.67 in woc964/wocrgl animals and 1.58 in woc964/Df(3R)mbtP animals.
Polytene chromosomes derived from homozygous larvae are normal in size.
Selected as: A mutation that shows frequent telomere-telomere attachments in cells of the larval brain.
