No - apart from the obvious similarity in map position. a combination of
Yong's cytology and Edwin's P1 colony lifts suggests 86D8-10 for RpL3.
It's essentially been a part-time hobby of Edwin's, and I think that it
would probably take too much effort to do something like sequence the gene
in the single mutant allele available. If someone handed us an RpL3
antibody on a plate we could try a Western, but the chances of identifying
a change with only one mutant allele probably aren't high.
