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.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: female gonad development; establishment of imaginal disc-derived wing hair orientation; non-canonical Wnt receptor signaling pathway; retinal ganglion cell axon guidance; cell migration; neural retina development; salivary gland morphogenesis; Wnt receptor signaling pathway, planar cell polarity pathway.
18 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 31 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system; organ system subdivision; adult segment; external compound sense organ; nervous system; peripheral nervous system; non-connected developing system; multi-cell-component structure; adult mesothoracic segment; germarium; abdominal segment 7; female germline cyst; abdominal segment 8; abdominal segment 10; wing hair; embryonic foregut.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Secreted growth factor Wnt protein, conserved site; Wnt.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of very low expression.
Peak expression observed within 06-18 hour embryonic stages.
