Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: structural constituent of cytoskeleton.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: cytokinesis; phagocytosis, engulfment.
9 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: mesothoracic tergum; trichogen cell.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Actin, conserved site; Actin-like; Actin/actin-like conserved site.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of high expression.
Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis, during late larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period, in stages of adults of both sexes.
