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 for 29 unique biological process terms, many of which group under: anatomical structure development; cellular component organization or biogenesis; organ development; biological regulation; open tracheal system development; organ morphogenesis; multicellular organismal reproductive process; cell adhesion; localization; cell projection organization; sensory organ development.
86 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 54 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system; organ system subdivision; portion of tissue; primordium; female germline cyst; non-connected developing system; presumptive embryonic/larval nervous system; nervous system; adult segment; late extended germ band embryo.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Cadherin; Cadherin conserved site; Cadherin, cytoplasmic domain; Cadherin-like; Concanavalin A-like lectin/glucanase; Concanavalin A-like lectin/glucanase, subgroup; EGF-like region, conserved site; Epidermal growth factor-like, type 3; Laminin G domain; Laminin G, subdomain 2.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-12 hour embryonic stages.
