194bp deletion in exon 2 of axed.
axedCrisprA contains a 194 bp deletion in the axed coding region as well as three downstream mutations, the addition of a G between 3L:6616386 and 3L:6616387 , the deletion of G at 3L:6616390 and an A to C missense mutation at 3L:6616391 .
Flies carrying axedCrisprA mutant somatic clones show defective injury-induced axon degeneration: severed axons in sensory neurons in the adult wing remain intact for a full week after an axotomy, instead of being cleared away.
axedCrisprA fails to complement the lethality of either axed0011 or axed2094 mutants.
