Comment:

876 bp deletion resulting from the imprecise excision of P{SUPor-P}CG8677KG02636. The deletion extends upstream from the insertion site, removing part of the first intron, the first exon (which contains the ATG), and upstream sequences.

Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Homozygotes are viable, fertile and phenotypically normal, with only approximately 10% of the homozygotes dying in the pupal stage (these animals have a melanotic tumor phenotype).

The gross appearance of the polytene chromosomes appears normal in homozygous larvae and there is no change in the nucleosome repeat length of bulk chromatin isolated from mutant embryos compared to wild type.

The position effect variegation at the w locus caused by In(1)wm4h is significantly suppressed by CG86773602/+ and more strongly suppressed by CG86773602/CG86773602.
