Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: cytoskeletal adaptor activity; protein binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: RNA localization; protein localization; somatic muscle development; regulation of nervous system development; establishment of mitotic spindle localization; asymmetric neuroblast division; apical protein localization; regulation of asymmetric cell division; peripheral nervous system development.
72 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 178 unique terms, many of which group under: hypodermal muscle of larval abdomen; organ system; A1-7 oblique muscle; A1-7 transverse muscle; larval abdominal segment 5; organ system subdivision; hypodermal muscle of metathorax; adult abdominal myoblast; abdominal segment 7; A1-7 ventral oblique muscle 1.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Armadillo-like helical; Armadillo-type fold; Metal-dependent hydrolase HDOD.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of low expression.
Peak expression observed within 06-18 hour embryonic stages.
