Gene details (from Flybase) | It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: actin binding; cytoskeletal protein binding. Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to be involved in the biological process: cytoskeletal anchoring at plasma membrane. 11 alleles are reported. No phenotypic data is available. It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide. Protein features are: Alpha-catenin; Vinculin, conserved site; Vinculin/alpha-catenin. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of moderate expression. Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis, during late larval stages, during early pupal stages. . |
