Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: chromatin binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: fertilization, exchange of chromosomal proteins; sperm chromatin decondensation; DNA replication-independent nucleosome assembly; chromatin remodeling.
10 alleles are reported.
The phenotype of these alleles is annotated with: male pronucleus.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: G-protein beta WD-40 repeat; HIRA B motif; Quinonprotein alcohol dehydrogenase-like; TUP1-like enhancer of split; WD40 repeat; WD40 repeat 2; WD40 repeat, conserved site; WD40 repeat, subgroup; WD40 repeat-like-containing domain; WD40-repeat-containing domain; WD40/YVTN repeat-like-containing domain.
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 00-06 hour embryonic stages, in adult female stages.
