Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Its molecular function is unknown.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: eye pigment granule organization; ommochrome biosynthetic process.
65 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 11 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system subdivision; external compound sense organ; organ system; retinal pigment granule; peripheral nervous system; compound cell cluster organ; adult segment; nervous system; adult; female genitalia; integumentary plate.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Regulator of chromosome condensation, RCC1; Regulator of chromosome condensation/beta-lactamase-inhibitor protein II.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-06 hour embryonic stages, in adult female stages.
