1,168bp deletion eliminating a substantial portion of the coding sequence and the ATG initiation codon.
1168 bases are deleted and replaced with eleven bases (AAAGCAGCTAT).
AAAGCAGCTAT
female sterile (with Gorab1)
Gorab2 homozygotes emerging at 25[o]C move slowly and are uncoordinated, and when raised at 29[o]C, they are unable to climb or fly.
Embryos derived from mothers simultaneously homozygous for Gorab1 and expressing GorabWT.Ubq.N-GFP under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 show a severe decrease in the number of mitotic cell cycles, associated with mitotic spindle defects (i.e. centrosome loss and multipolar spindles), as compared to controls.
