705bp deletion within Aduk, removing most of the conserved kinase domain (including the ATP-binding pocket) and resulting in a frameshift leading to a premature stop codon after 6 codons. Generated by imprecise excision of Aduk; a 6bp remnant of the inserted element remains immediately downstream of the deletion.
706 bp deletion resulting from the imprecise excision of P{EPgy2}AdukEY18321. 6 bases from the P element remain at the site of the excision.
AdukΔ3b mutant clones in larval fat body do not show any ectopic autophagy under unstressed conditions nor do they display any defects in developmental autophagy occurring during the wandering third larval instar stage or in starvation-induced autophagy.
AdukΔ3b homozygous adults show reduced survival rate compared to controls.
