G to A nucleotide change at the second or third position of the Trp codon leads to a nonsense mutation (exact site of mutation unspecified). Site of nucleotide substitution in mutant inferred by FlyBase based on reported amino acid change.
Mutant flies containing homozygous eyes (generated using the eyFLP method) show degenerative electroretinogram defects which worsen with age.
sicilyH is rescued by sicilymCherry
sicilyH is rescued by Scer\GAL4da.PU/sicilyUAS.cZa
sicilyT:Disc\RFP-mCherry rescues the lethality and electroretinogram defects of sicilyH.
