Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: structural constituent of cytoskeleton.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: mitotic cell cycle spindle assembly checkpoint; cellular process; mitotic spindle organization; antimicrobial humoral response.
39 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: spermatid; mesothoracic tergum.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Alpha tubulin; Tubulin; Tubulin, C-terminal; Tubulin, conserved site; Tubulin/FtsZ, 2-layer sandwich domain; Tubulin/FtsZ, C-terminal; Tubulin/FtsZ, GTPase domain.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of extremely high expression to a trough of very high expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-18 hour embryonic stages, at stages throughout the larval period, at stages throughout the pupal period.
