Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: receptor activity; cell adhesion molecule binding.
There is experimental evidence for 12 unique biological process terms, many of which group under: cellular component organization or biogenesis; neuron differentiation; sensory organ development; biological regulation; compound eye photoreceptor development; growth; regulation of neurogenesis; neuron projection development; cell adhesion; developmental growth.
42 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 15 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system subdivision; organ system; adult segment; embryonic/larval neuron; external compound sense organ; non-connected developing system; peripheral nervous system; imaginal precursor; MP1 neuron; histaminergic neuron; integumentary plate.
It has 12 annotated transcripts and 12 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Cadherin; Cadherin conserved site; Cadherin-like; Concanavalin A-like lectin/glucanase; Concanavalin A-like lectin/glucanase, subgroup; EGF; EGF-like calcium-binding; EGF-like region, conserved site; Epidermal growth factor-like; Epidermal growth factor-like, type 3; Laminin G domain; Laminin G, subdomain 2.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of very low expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-06 and 12-24 hour embryonic stages, at stages throughout the pupal period.
