Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Its molecular function is unknown.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: heart development.
6 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: embryonic dorsal vessel; cardioblast; embryonic pericardial cell.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Pericardin-like prepeat.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of extremely low expression.
Peak expression observed within 18-24 hour embryonic stages.
