Subject: exciting data Dear Flybasers, ry506 is listed as a 3.4 kb deletion between +1.1 to +5.0. I sequenced a PCR product that spans this junction and determined that the deletion begins at +1397 (GTGCATTG...) and proceeds through +4885 (...TTATGAAAC). There is an insertion of a single A between the breakpoints (unless this A is a polymorphism on the ry+5 chromosome at +4885; I obtained the sequence between rosy and snake from Rob DeLotto, and I don't know the origin of his sequence). Enjoy. Jeff Sekelsky
