Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Its molecular function is unknown.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: morphogenesis of embryonic epithelium; homophilic cell adhesion; regulation of tube size, open tracheal system; maintenance of epithelial integrity, open tracheal system; open tracheal system development.
14 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: presumptive embryonic salivary gland; dorsal group branch precursor; embryonic/larval dorsal trunk; presumptive embryonic/larval tracheal system; embryonic/larval tracheal system; lateral group branch precursor; dorsal trunk primordium; embryonic/larval transverse connective.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Immunoglobulin I-set; Immunoglobulin subtype; Immunoglobulin subtype 2; Immunoglobulin-like; Immunoglobulin-like fold.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of moderately high expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-18 hour embryonic stages, during early pupal stages.
