Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: protein binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: germarium-derived female germ-line cyst encapsulation; ovarian follicle cell stalk formation; sex comb development; multicellular organismal development; chromatin silencing; sister chromatid cohesion; neurogenesis.
10 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: larval abdominal segment 7; metathoracic ventral denticle belt; abdominal 4 ventral denticle belt; prothoracic ventral denticle belt; mesothoracic tergum; embryonic thoracic segment; mesothoracic ventral denticle belt; embryonic abdominal segment; denticle belt.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Zinc finger, C3HC4 RING-type; Zinc finger, RING-type; Zinc finger, RING-type, conserved site; Zinc finger, RING/FYVE/PHD-type.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-12 hour embryonic stages.
