Nucleotide substitution: G?A. Amino acid replacement: R221Q.
Mutation stated to be R to E, but see Schupbach, 2001.10.19, personal communication to FlyBase for correction. Nucleotide substitution: G2217A.

R222Q | grk-PA
R221Q
ventral furrow | ectopic (with grk2)
ventral furrow | increased number (with grk2)
Posterior follicle cells show an abnormal shape and behaviour.
grk6 homozygous females also heterozygous or homozygous for fs(1)K1013 or fs(1)K101 produce eggs with a ventralised phenotype.
Embryos from double mutants with sqdix43 are weakly ventralised.
Follicular epithelium of mutant egg chambers has holes.
Reduction or absence of dorsal appendages (ventralization) with increase in main body egg shell. Micropyle at both ends of eggs, embryos ventralized.
An enlarged mass of mesodermal cells invaginates on the ventral side of the embryo, the enlarged mesoderm is often organised into two ventral furrows. Organisation is lost in later stages of development and a mass of mesodermal cells fills the ventral half of the embryo. Respiratory appendages are fused and shortened and adjacent operculum is reduced.
phenotype of eggs and embryos: mostly intermediate but can vary from weak to strong
grk6/grk[+] is an enhancer of embryonic epidermis phenotype of cactE10
grk6 is an enhancer of dorsal appendage phenotype of Lis-1k11702
grk6 is a non-enhancer of embryonic epidermis phenotype of fus1
grk6 is a suppressor | partially of dorsal appendage phenotype of Scer\GAL455B, rhoUAS.cGa
grk6 is a suppressor | partially of ventral denticle belt phenotype of Scer\GAL455B, rhoUAS.cGa
grk6 is a suppressor | partially of larval dorsal hair phenotype of Scer\GAL455B, rhoUAS.cGa
da2, grk6/grk[+] has follicle cell phenotype
da2, grk6 has follicle cell phenotype
