Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: protein binding.
There is experimental evidence for 12 unique biological process terms, many of which group under: anatomical structure development; cellular component organization or biogenesis; multicellular organismal reproductive process; biological regulation; central nervous system development; localization; cellular process involved in reproduction; cell division; ovarian nurse cell to oocyte transport; organ development.
67 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 34 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system; female germline cyst; organ system subdivision; egg; spermatocyte; adult segment; portion of tissue; sensillum; nervous system; multi-cell-component structure.
It has 6 annotated transcripts and 6 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Profilin, plant; Profilin/allergen.
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, at stages throughout the larval period, at stages throughout the pupal period, in adult female stages.
