Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: protein binding; kinase binding.
There is experimental evidence for 15 unique biological process terms, many of which group under: biological regulation; regulation of biological process; cellular component organization or biogenesis; response to chemical stimulus; response to stress; cellular response to stimulus; response to DNA damage stimulus; response to nutrient levels; cell-cell signaling; multicellular organismal reproductive process; determination of adult lifespan; signaling; primary metabolic process.
51 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 12 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system subdivision; external compound sense organ; adult segment; nervous system; adult mesothoracic segment; compound cell cluster organ; peripheral nervous system; eo support cell; rhabdomere; cell cycle.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Armadillo-type fold; Rap/ran-GAP; Tuberin; Tuberin-type domain.
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 00-06 hour embryonic stages.
