Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: beta-catenin binding; protein kinase binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: imaginal disc pattern formation; eye-antennal disc morphogenesis; somatic stem cell maintenance; negative regulation of Wnt receptor signaling pathway; oogenesis; imaginal disc-derived wing morphogenesis; Wnt receptor signaling pathway; phagocytosis, engulfment.
40 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 19 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system; adult segment; organ system subdivision; thoracic segment; portion of tissue; acellular anatomical structure; tracheal system; indirect flight muscle; adult; external compound sense organ.
It has 5 annotated transcripts and 5 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Axin beta-catenin binding; DIX; Regulator of G protein signalling; Regulator of G protein signalling superfamily; Regulator of G-protein signaling, domain 1.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-06 hour embryonic stages.
