23bp deletion, resulting in a frameshift that produces two changed amino acid residues followed by a premature stop codon.
Reported as a 23bp deletion which cause a frameshift and early termination. The published sequence show that a 25bp region is missing and TA is inserted in the gap, resulting in a frameshift and early termination.

After 1 week of ad libitum feeding, the fat body cells of adp60 flies contain greatly enlarged lipid droplets compared to controls. In addition, the mutant animals show a twofold higher accumulation of triglycerides, and a variable, slight reduction of glycogen levels to 70-80% of normal levels.
adp60 adults show increased resistance to starvation compared to control flies.
Homozygous females are heavier than control females. Heterozygous females are not significantly different in weight from control females.
Adults are obese.
Corpus allatum hypertrophies in mated females. Females are fertile but egg hatchability is reduced. Adult emergence is low.
Adult fat body hypertrophies as cells become distorted by enormous oil globules. Lipid accumulated at expense of glycogen in fat body; yolk deposition retarded (FBrf0065652; FBrf0034729). Lipid content and fatty acid profiles compared for various developmental stages in adp60 and wild type (FBrf0044927). Abnormal fat bodies visible through body wall of 6-day-old and older adults when submerged in 95% alcohol and then water. Corpus allatum of mated females hypertrophies. Females fertile but egg hatchability reduced to 45-90%, depending on residual genome; dorsal appendages of chorion convoluted or fused (FBrf0015801); adult emergence lowered to 33-85%. (FBrf0015272).Heterozygotes show desiccation tolerance superior to that of wild type or adp60 homozygotes (FBrf0039608). RK3.
adp60/Df(2L)C28 double heterozygous females are significantly heavier (approximately 21% heavier) than control females.
adp60/Df(2L)C28 double heterozygotes eclose at the same rate as adp60/+ flies.
The weight of adp60/tocP and adp60/Mad12 double heterozygous flies is not significantly different from that of control flies.
adp60/Df(2L)C28 double heterozygous females expressing Hydr2Scer\UAS.cWa under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.PB (using heat shock) show no significant difference in weight compared to control females.
Stated to be lost.
