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.
Homozygous Nos1 mutant larvae exhibit normal development and developmental timing, and give rise to viable, fertile and morphologically wild type adult flies. CNS development also appears normal.
Nos1/NosΔ15 mutant larvae exhibit normal development and developmental timing, and give rise to viable, fertile and morphologically wild type adult flies. CNS development also appears normal and there is no overt effect on taste or feeding behavior compared to controls. Nos1/NosΔ15 mutant flies exhibit locomotor defects; flies walk considerably more, and stop considerably less, than control flies.
