Df(2L)PaxΔ1 deletes almost all of the Pax coding region, the downstream gene CG31798, and one of two CG17544 transcripts.
PaxΔ1 homozygosity does not lead to significant changes in the number of ectopic VincCO.Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Equa\eqFP578-TagRFP-positive cytoplasmic protein aggregates in follicle cell clones, formed upon Scer\GAL4Act5C.PU-driven expression.
Animals homozygous for Df(2L)PaxΔ1 die as pupae. Homozygous Df(2L)PaxΔ1 (PaxΔ1]) animals survive when rescued by Pax24.2.T:Avic\GFP.
Compared with wild-type, an increased number of unfused myoblasts are detected in embryos homozygous for PaxΔ1.
PaxΔ1 is a non-suppressor of follicle cell | somatic clone phenotype of Scer\GAL4Act5C.PU, VincCO.UASp.TagRFP
Homozygous Df(2L)PaxΔ1 animals survive when rescued by Pax24.2.T:Avic\GFP.
