Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: DNA bending activity; sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity; transcription factor binding; sequence-specific DNA binding; DNA binding; mRNA 3'-UTR binding.
There is experimental evidence for 11 unique biological process terms, many of which group under: multicellular organismal process; anatomical structure development; biological regulation; regulation of cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process; developmental process; central nervous system development; regulation of metabolic process; regionalization; instar larval development; system development; dorsal/ventral axis specification; localization.
64 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 64 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system subdivision; adult segment; abdominal ventral denticle belt; antennal segment; ventral nerve cord primordium; adult mesothoracic segment; embryonic/larval neuron; external compound sense organ; commissure; primordium.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: High mobility group, HMG1/HMG2; High mobility group, superfamily.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of very low expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-12 hour embryonic stages.
