Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: protein binding; DNA binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: positive regulation of gene expression; positive regulation of nurse cell apoptosis; oogenesis; dorsal/ventral axis specification, ovarian follicular epithelium; regulation of cell cycle; cell cycle; DNA damage response, signal transduction resulting in induction of apoptosis.
38 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 18 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system subdivision; organ system; external compound sense organ; adult segment; female germline cyst; sensillum; nervous system; eo support cell; nucleus; egg; cell cycle; imaginal precursor.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Transcription factor DP; Transcription factor DP, C-terminal; Transcription factor DP, subgroup; Transcription factor E2F/dimerisation partner (TDP); Winged helix-turn-helix transcription repressor DNA-binding.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-12 hour embryonic stages, in adult female stages.
