Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: mRNA binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: protein localization; actin cytoskeleton organization; circadian rhythm; mitosis; negative regulation of eclosion; oogenesis; embryo development; eclosion rhythm; cytoplasmic transport, nurse cell to oocyte.
29 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: adult cuticle; scutellar bristle; wing; posterior scutellar bristle.
It has 5 annotated transcripts and 5 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Nucleotide-binding, alpha-beta plait; RNA recognition motif domain; Zinc finger, CCHC retroviral-type; Zinc finger, CCHC-type.
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 00-12 hour embryonic stages.
