G73R | Smn-PA; G73R | Smn-PB
G73R
Analogous mutation in human SMN1 implicated in spinal muscular atrophy, type III; mutation carried on in vitro construct; site of nucleotide substitution in fly gene inferred by FlyBase curator based on reported amino acid change.
SmnG73R.Tag:FLAG partially rescues SmnX7
SmnY203C.Tag:FLAG/SmnG73R.Tag:FLAG partially rescues SmnX7
Expression of one copy of SmnG73R.T:Zzzz\FLAG partially rescues the larval lethality seen in homozygous SmnX7 mutants.
Co-expression of one copy each of SmnY203C.T:Zzzz\FLAG and SmnG73R.T:Zzzz\FLAG partially rescues the larval lethality seen in homozygous SmnX7 mutants. The phenotype is intermediate between expressing one copy each of either transgene, indicating that SmnY203C.T:Zzzz\FLAG is having a dominant effect. No adults eclose but most animal reach the pupal stage.
