Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity; protein heterodimerization activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: female gonad development; gonad morphogenesis; male gonad development.
8 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: ovary; testis.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Basic-leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor; Eukaryotic transcription factor, Skn-1-like, DNA-binding; Maf transcription factor.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of extremely low expression.
Peak expression observed in adult female stages.
