Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: dendrite morphogenesis; neuron development; muscle organ development; oogenesis; neuroblast development; dendrite guidance.
18 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: ventral nerve cord commissure; proboscis; ventral nerve cord; tarsal segment; longitudinal connective; wing; dorsal appendage; embryonic/larval neuron; embryonic/larval muscle system; wing hinge.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Zinc finger, C2H2; Zinc finger, C2H2-like; Zinc finger, C2H2-type/integrase, DNA-binding.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderate expression to a trough of low expression.
Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis, during early larval stages, during early pupal stages, in adult female stages.
