TGG to TAG nonsense mutation in a Trp codon. See also Figure S1.
GlcAT-Pbrv2 mutant 3rd instar larvae exhibit a dramatically extended larval ventral nerve cord, 2-3 times that found in wild-type controls.
GlcAT-Pbrv2 adult escapers show developmental defects in the legs, while some exhibit rudimentary wings.
GlcAT-Pbrv2 is rescued by GlcAT-PCH322-82E19
