Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: Ran GTPase binding; protein transmembrane transporter activity.
There is experimental evidence for 16 unique biological process terms, many of which group under: sensory organ development; biological regulation; post-embryonic organ morphogenesis; appendage development; cell fate commitment; protein localization to nucleus; system development; instar larval or pupal morphogenesis; compound eye morphogenesis; localization.
17 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: wing vein L5; posterior crossvein; trichogen cell; crossvein; anterior crossvein; chaeta; wing vein L4; wing.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Armadillo-like helical; Armadillo-type fold; Exportin/Importin, Cse1-like; Importin-beta, N-terminal.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of moderately high expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-06 hour embryonic stages, during early larval stages, in adult female stages.
