dsc73 Lethal Alleles Fail to Make Detectable Levels of Dsc73 Protein^a

Embryos stage 13 and older were scored for staining or absence of staining with αDsc73. All 100% of embryos collected from wild-type and revertant (exc4) flies stained, whereas only approximately 75% of embryos collected from flies heterozygous for the dsc73 lethal alleles stained.
