46015 Q967D7 TUTL_DROME Protein turtle DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE Adult mutant flies are unable to fly and roll over when inverted, explaining the name 'turtle' (PubMed:11312296). In the eye, axonal tiling of the R7 photoreceptor is defective in approximately 22% of axons (PubMed:24174674). Double knockouts of tutl and bdl rescue the R7 axonal tiling defect (PubMed:24174674). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11312296, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24174674}.
