Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: sequence-specific DNA binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: sensory organ precursor cell fate determination; compound eye development; dendrite morphogenesis; neuron development; mesoderm development.
80 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 30 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system subdivision; adult segment; adult mesothoracic segment; nervous system; external compound sense organ; peripheral nervous system; sensillum; somatic stem cell; epithelial furrow; external sensory organ precursor cell; gustatory sensory organ; late extended germ band embryo.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Helix-loop-helix DNA-binding; Helix-loop-helix DNA-binding domain; Orange; Orange subgroup.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of no expression detected.
Peak expression observed within 06-12 hour embryonic stages.
