Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: vascular endothelial growth factor receptor binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: hemocyte migration; hemocyte proliferation; salivary gland morphogenesis.
14 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: plasmatocyte; adult midgut; intestinal stem cell; enterocyte; hemocyte; crystal cell; embryonic hemocyte.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderate expression to a trough of extremely low expression.
Peak expression observed within 06-12 hour embryonic stages, during late larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period.
