Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity; sequence-specific DNA binding RNA polymerase II transcription factor activity; protein heterodimerization activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; posterior midgut development; primary sex determination; anterior midgut development; endoderm development; sex determination.
15 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: yolk granule; yolk.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of no expression detected.
Peak expression observed within 00-12 hour embryonic stages.
