Genomic fragment (derived from BAC clone CH321-26E08) that encompasses the Utx gene. The coding sequence has been mutated to carry the amino acid substitutions H883A and G885A, resulting in a catalytically inactive protein.

Detailed Description
Statement
Reference
Adults carrying the Utxg.cd allele in a UtxΔ/UtxΔ background derived from UtxΔ/+ mothers appear morphologically indistinguishable from wild-types, but die within 1-2 days post eclosion.
Utxg.cd fails to rescue adult mortality in UtxΔ/UtxΔ flies derived from UtxΔ/+ mothers and larval lethality in UtxΔ/UtxΔ flies derived from UtxΔ/+ mothers with homozygous UtxΔ female germline clones.
