Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: calcium ion binding; actin binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: regulation of cell shape; myoblast fusion; cell adhesion.
4 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: embryonic myoblast; tormogen cell.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Calponin homology domain; Calponin repeat; Smooth muscle protein/calponin.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of extremely high expression to a trough of very low expression.
Peak expression observed within 18-24 hour embryonic stages, at stages throughout the larval period, during late pupal stages.
