2bp deletion ( 2R:19401008..19401009 , release 6 genome) in hts exon 12, predicted to result in a 62 amino acid extension in the new reading frame starting at I775 of Ovhts.
htsI775fs homozygotes and htsI775fs/Df(2R)BSC135 transheterozygotes do not have fusome defects but egg chamber ring canals lack the robust F-actin inner rim observed in wild-type controls.
htsI775fs is rescued by htsOvhts.otu.GFP(S65T)
