Cytological characterisation of the mutant phenotypes produced during early embryogenesis by null and loss-of-function alleles of the gammaTub37C gene in Drosophila.

Abstract excerpt

We have studied the mutant phenotypes brought about during early embryogenesis by mutation in the gammaTub37C gene, one of the two isoforms of gamma-tubulin that have been identified in Drosophila. We have focused our attention on fs(2)TW1(1) and fs(2)TW1(RU34), a null and a hypomorph allele of this gene, whose sequences we report in this work. We have found that the abnormal meiotic figures observed in mutant...
