Imprecise excision of the progenitor insertion, resulting in a 595bp deletion that removes part of the morgue gene (the coding region up to Asp145 is deleted).
595 bp deletion resulting from the imprecise excision of P{SUPor-P}Elp3KG02386, which extends from the insertion site up to amino acid residue D145 of morgue. Boundaries approximate.
Homozygous flies are somewhat lethargic.
One or both of the anterior spiracles of the pupal case fail to evert and extend in 13% of homozygotes. 10.2% of eclosed homozygous adults show malformations in the tergite plates on the dorsal abdomen.
Stage 16 mutant embryos have aberrant midline glial cytoplasmic processes that are not well separated and often extend across inter-ganglia borders.
morgue[+]/morgue457 is a suppressor of increased cell death phenotype of hidGMR.PG
