Comment:

G to A nucleotide change at the second or third position of the wild type Trp codon leads to a nonsense mutation (exact site of mutation unspecified). The mutation was annotated at the second base of the codon.

Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Egg chambers containing follicle cells mutant for MbsT791 display oocyte polarity defects.

Homozygous clones located in the morphogenetic furrow result in the formation of a groove.

MbsT791 mutant clones in the eye disc show a mislocalization of photoreceptors from the apical epithelium into the basal region, sometimes progressing into the optic stalk. The mislocalized photoreceptors retain their polarity and some epithelial characteristics. There is only a slight reduction in apical constriction in the morphogenetic furrow in MbsT791 clones and no ectopic apical constriction in more posterior regions of the disc.

Comments

Expression of MbsScer\UAS.cLa, driven by Scer\GAL4da.G32, partially rescues the embryonic lethality of MbsT541/MbsT791 transheterozygotes, allowing over 90% of these mutants to survive to the pupal stage and 45% to survive to adulthood.
