Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: epidermal growth factor binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: negative regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor signaling pathway; cytokinesis; oogenesis; neurogenesis.
42 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 13 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system; organ system subdivision; adult segment; thoracic segment; external compound sense organ; adult; cell part; cell periphery; egg; epithelial cell; cell; peripheral nervous system.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Cysteine-rich flanking region, C-terminal domain; Immunoglobulin I-set; Immunoglobulin subtype 2; Immunoglobulin-like; Immunoglobulin-like fold; Leucine-rich repeat; Leucine-rich repeat, typical subtype.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of extremely low expression.
Peak expression observed during early pupal stages.
