R366term
Site of nucleotide substitution in mutant inferred by FlyBase based on reported amino acid change.
Homozygous mutant imaginal discs show neoplastic phenotypes.
Egg chambers containing Chc3 mutant germline clones show morphological defects.
No defects are seen in axon pruning during metamorphosis, or defects seen in the mushroom body.
Germline clonal analysis demonstrates an autonomous cell-lethal mutation in the female germline. Most embryos succeed in hatching, unhatched embryos show no regular cuticle defect.
