Five of the six coding exons of l(3)neo38 have been deleted (the deletion removes the zinc-finger domain).
CC
Most of the coding sequence of l(3)neo38 has been deleted. CC is present at the site of the deletion.
l(3)neo38CRISPR homozygous larvae exhibit smaller and less branched neuromuscular junctions.
l(3)neo38CRISPR homozygous adults exhibit severely reduced motility, are barely able to walk and unable to fly (with a wings-up phenotype).
