Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: RNA polymerase II core promoter proximal region sequence-specific DNA binding; protein binding; chromatin binding; protein homodimerization activity.
There is experimental evidence for 21 unique biological process terms, many of which group under: anatomical structure development; biological regulation; open tracheal system development; cellular component organization or biogenesis; sensory organ development; cellular process involved in reproduction; compound eye photoreceptor development; organ morphogenesis; regulation of developmental process; compound eye cone cell differentiation; neuromuscular process; behavioral interaction between organisms; locomotion; growth.
156 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 80 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system subdivision; external compound sense organ; nervous system; adult segment; peripheral nervous system; multi-cell-component structure; presumptive embryonic/larval nervous system; cuticle; imaginal precursor; eo support cell; taenidial fold; larval abdominal segment 5.
It has 8 annotated transcripts and 8 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: AT hook, DNA-binding motif; BTB/POZ; BTB/POZ fold; BTB/POZ-like; Zinc finger, C2H2; Zinc finger, C2H2-like; Zinc finger, C2H2-type/integrase, DNA-binding.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of low expression.
Peak expression observed within 06-18 hour embryonic stages.
