Imprecise excision of an insertion in the first intron of DLP, resulting in a 1.7kb deletion that removes the downstream part of the first intron and 1296bp of coding sequence from the second exon.
Approximate boundaries of 1.7 kb deletion resulting from the imprecise excision of P{RS3}DaxxCB-6241-3 (curator deduction from description - one of two insertions in the first intron of Daxx used for creating excisions). The deletion takes out part of the intron and 1296 bp of exon 2.
Mutant third instar larvae show no reduction in survival after irradiation with 2krad X rays compared to control larvae. Homozygotes show a decreased rate of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) after irradiation compared to control flies. The average number of eggs laid by DaxxU32/DaxxU26 females in a 24 hour interval is significantly less than the number laid by control females. The median of the lifespan of homozygous males is significantly decreased compared to that of control males.

DaxxU26/DaxxU26 is an enhancer of partially lethal - majority die phenotype of Scer\GAL4Act5C.PI, p53UAS.cJa
Two-thirds of animals expressing p53Scer\UAS.cJa under the control of Scer\GAL4Act5C.PI in a DLPU26/DLPU26 background die in early pupal stage and only 9% of them eclose.
