Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: ATPase activity, coupled.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: mesoderm development.
3 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: trichogen cell; mesothoracic tergum.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: EF-HAND 2; EF-hand-like domain.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of extremely high expression to a trough of low expression.
Peak expression observed within 18-24 hour embryonic stages, at stages throughout the larval period, during late pupal stages, in stages of adults of both sexes.
