Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: myosin heavy chain binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: border follicle cell migration; nuclear axial expansion; wound healing; cytokinesis; formation of a compartment boundary; cell elongation involved in imaginal disc-derived wing morphogenesis; regulation of tube length, open tracheal system; imaginal disc-derived wing hair organization; regulation of actin cytoskeleton organization; neurogenesis.
31 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 19 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system; female germline cyst; portion of tissue; organ system subdivision; egg; adult segment; thoracic segment; imaginal precursor; hub cell; extended germ band embryo; cellular component organization or biogenesis; actomyosin contractile ring; external compound sense organ.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Calcium-binding EF-hand; EF-HAND 2; EF-Hand 1, calcium-binding site; EF-hand; EF-hand-like domain.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of high expression.
Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis, during late larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period.
