Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
An electronic pipeline based on InterPro domains suggests that it has the molecular function: serine-type endopeptidase activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: imaginal disc-derived male genitalia morphogenesis.
9 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: embryonic/first instar larval cuticle; adult head.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Peptidase S1/S6, chymotrypsin/Hap; Peptidase S1A, chymotrypsin-type; Peptidase cysteine/serine, trypsin-like.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of very low expression.
Peak expression observed within 18-24 hour embryonic stages.
