Deletion of base pairs 1916-1926 resulting in a frameshift at P639 and a truncation at codon 677.
Deletion of base pairs 1916-1926 of the nkd-RA CDS resulting in a frameshift at codon P639 of nkd-PA and a truncation at codon 677.

nkdΔhis/nkdΔhis embryos exhibit several abnormal denticle belts with disordered denticle rows, misoriented denticles as well as excess small denticles in their anterior regions.
nkdΔhis/nkd13 transheterozygous embryos exhibit defective denticle belts.
