Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: motor axon guidance; central nervous system development; open tracheal system development.
12 alleles are reported.
The phenotype of these alleles is annotated with: ventral nerve cord.
It has 6 annotated transcripts and 6 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Fibronectin type III domain; Fibronectin, type III; Immunoglobulin-like fold; Protein-tyrosine phosphatase, active site; Protein-tyrosine phosphatase, receptor/non-receptor type; Protein-tyrosine/Dual-specificity phosphatase.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-18 hour embryonic stages, during early pupal stages, in adult female stages.
