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.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: neuroblast development.
19 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 12 unique terms, many of which group under: larval abdominal segment; organ system subdivision; nervous system; peripheral nervous system; embryonic/larval neuron; multicellular structure; somatic cell; organ system; embryonic abdomen; neuroblast NB4-2; ganglion mother cell GMC4-2a.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Homeobox; Homeobox, conserved site; Homeodomain-like; Homeodomain-related; Lambda repressor-like, DNA-binding; POU; POU-specific.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of very low expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-06 hour embryonic stages.
