Site of nucleotide substitution in mutant inferred by FlyBase based on reported amino acid change.
Transheterozygous Hdac3I/Hdac3J wandering third instar larvae exhibit imaginal discs that are significantly reduced in size compared to wildtype. The pouch region of the wing disc appears particularly small and quantitative measurements reveal reductions to about 30% of normal size. These wing discs display robust and widespread apoptosis. In general this is more prominent in the wing blade versus the notal portion of the disc and the precise pattern of apoptotic cells can vary considerably from disc to disc. Cell proliferation appears unaffected.
