Contains an 8-bp deletion in exon 5 that results in a three amino acid frameshift ending in a nonsense codon.
An 8 bp deletion results in a frameshift and early translation termination.
Su(z)24-31 is a suppressor of abnormal eye color phenotype of z1
Psc1, Su(z)2[+]/Su(z)24-31 has lethal phenotype
Su(z)24-31 suppresses the eye colour phenotype of z1.
Psc1 +/+ Su(z)24-31 animals are not viable.
Su(z)24 is an unstable allele as two isolates have been identified with distinct molecular signatures. Both isolates contain an 8-bp deletion in exon 5, but one (termed Su(z)24-34) contains an ~9kb insertion in intron 1 while the other (termed Su(z)24-31) does not. It is not certain that either isolate corresponds to the original Su(z)24 mutation.
