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.
There is experimental evidence for 16 unique biological process terms, many of which group under: cellular component organization or biogenesis; biological regulation; system development; multicellular organismal development; regulation of developmental process; sensory organ development; regulation of cellular component organization; neuron differentiation; synaptic transmission; neuron projection development.
30 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 22 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system; organ system subdivision; adult segment; sense organ; eo support cell; multicellular structure; integumentary plate; cell part; non-connected developing system; synapse; external compound sense organ; portion of tissue.
It has 3 annotated transcripts and 3 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Actin-binding WH2; EVH1; PAK-box/P21-Rho-binding; Pleckstrin homology-type; Wiscott-Aldrich syndrome, C-terminal.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-06 and 12-24 hour embryonic stages, at stages throughout the larval period, at stages throughout the pupal period, in stages of adults of both sexes.
