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 for 13 unique biological process terms, many of which group under: anatomical structure development; biological regulation; organ development; muscle organ development; regulation of developmental process; cellular component organization or biogenesis; localization; myoblast proliferation; regulation of cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process; cell proliferation; leg morphogenesis; locomotion; post-embryonic organ morphogenesis; muscle cell differentiation; regulation of multicellular organismal development.
7 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 27 unique terms, many of which group under: adult abdominal myoblast; organ system; adult; organ system subdivision; hypodermal muscle of larval abdomen; myoblast; abdominal segment 7; multi-cell-component structure; embryonic/larval hypodermal muscle; adult somatic muscle; embryonic/larval neuron; primordium.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Helix-turn-helix motif, lambda-like repressor; Homeobox; Homeobox, conserved site; Homeobox, eukaryotic; Homeodomain-like; Homeodomain-related.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very low expression to a trough of no expression detected.
Peak expression observed within 06-12 hour embryonic stages, during late larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period, in adult male stages.
