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; sequence-specific DNA binding.
There is experimental evidence for 13 unique biological process terms, many of which group under: anatomical structure development; biological regulation; central nervous system development; organ development; multicellular organismal process; sensory organ development; neuron differentiation; organ morphogenesis; locomotory behavior; compound eye development.
62 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 59 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system subdivision; adult segment; multi-cell-component structure; antennal segment; thoracic segment; external compound sense organ; imaginal precursor; presumptive embryonic/larval nervous system; lobula complex; dorsal thoracic disc; commissure.
It has 4 annotated transcripts and 4 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Homeobox; Homeobox, conserved site; Homeodomain-like; Homeodomain-related; Paired box protein, N-terminal; Winged helix-turn-helix transcription repressor DNA-binding.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderate expression to a trough of very low expression.
Peak expression observed within 06-12 hour embryonic stages.
