Imprecise excision of the progenitor insertion, resulting in a 1047bp deletion which removes genomic sequence from the original insertion site through the first 291 amino acid residues.
Estimated boundaries of a 1047 bb deletion resulting from the imprecise excision of P{XP}Stricad06491 that extends from the insertion and removes the first 291 amino acids of Strica3.
Approximately 30% of dying mid-stage egg chambers show defects in germline programmed cell death in homozygous and dream2/dream3 females, having large intact nurse cell nuclei, but lacking follicle cells. In addition, a small proportion of the egg chambers have condensed nurse cell nuclei but lack follicle cells.
