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: regulation of cell shape; torso signaling pathway; ventral furrow formation; morphogenesis of embryonic epithelium; terminal region determination; regulation of development, heterochronic; posterior midgut invagination.
41 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 13 unique terms, many of which group under: primordium; portion of tissue; multicellular structure; organ system; germ layer; organ system subdivision; extended germ band embryo; anchoring junction; epithelial furrow; gland; embryonic foregut; late extended germ band embryo.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of low expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-18 hour embryonic stages, during early pupal stages, in adult female stages.
