The native Orc6 promoter and UASt regulatory sequences are fused upstream of a mutated form of Orc6 that contains a K23E amino acid substitution. This change is equivalent to a K23E change in the orthologous human ORC6 gene, a variant identified in a patient with Meier-Gorlin syndrome. The coding sequence is tagged at the N-terminal end with GFP.

K23E
Analogous K23E mutation in human ORC6 implicated in Meier-Gorlin syndrome 3; mutation carried on in vitro construct; site of nucleotide substitution in fly gene inferred by FlyBase curator based on reported amino acid change.
The larval brain of Orc635/Orc635, Orc6K23E.Orc6.UAS.GFP/Orc6K23E.Orc6.UAS.GFP is underdeveloped. The surviving adult frequently exhibit missing/defective scutellar bristles, a small and misshaped eye.
