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: morphogenesis of an epithelium; dorsal closure; Malpighian tubule morphogenesis; foregut morphogenesis; cardioblast cell fate determination; head involution; salivary gland development.
24 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 22 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system; embryonic/larval neuron; nervous system; organ system subdivision; primordium; non-connected developing system; somatic cell; portion of tissue; multicellular structure; embryonic head; presumptive embryonic/larval nervous system; ectoderm derivative; spiracle; commissure; midgut constriction.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Immunoglobulin I-set; Immunoglobulin subtype; Immunoglobulin subtype 2; Immunoglobulin-like; Immunoglobulin-like fold.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderate expression to a trough of extremely low expression.
Peak expression observed within 06-24 hour embryonic stages, during early larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period.
