| Gene details (from Flybase) | It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. An electronic pipeline based on InterPro domains suggests that it has the molecular function: zinc ion binding. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: dsRNA transport; determination of adult lifespan; ommochrome biosynthetic process. 50 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: eye; Malpighian tubule; wing; ocellus pigment granule; pigment cell. It has 3 annotated transcripts and 3 annotated polypeptides. Protein features are: Clathrin, heavy chain/VPS, 7-fold repeat; Tetratricopeptide-like helical; Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 41; WD40 repeat; WD40 repeat, subgroup; WD40 repeat-like-containing domain; WD40/YVTN repeat-like-containing domain; Zinc finger, RING-type. 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. . |
