Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Its molecular function is unknown.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: oogenesis; nuclear-transcribed mRNA poly(A) tail shortening.
30 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: nurse cell ring canal; oocyte; egg chamber; nurse cell.
It has 6 annotated transcripts and 6 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Endonuclease/exonuclease/phosphatase; Leucine-rich repeat; Leucine-rich repeat, typical subtype.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-06 hour embryonic stages, in adult male stages.
