  • The first nucleotide of the ATG start codon for dKCNQ protein is numbered as + 1. Compared with precise excision line 24B, some deletion lines have short P-element sequences left between the breakpoints of excision. In line 53B, there is 1 bp (A); in 42B, there are 33 bp (CGTCTTACTTATTTACTTACTTATTTCATCATG); in 18B, there are 22 bp (CATGATGAAATAACAGAATAAC); and in 64B, there are 4 bp (GTTA).
