Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: microtubule binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: cytoskeleton-dependent intracellular transport; endocytosis; determination of adult lifespan; phagocytosis, engulfment.
28 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: glial cell; eye disc; macrochaeta; lysosome; multivesicular body; endosome; ommatidium; synapse.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: HOOK.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis, during late larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period, in adult female stages.
