| 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: binding. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: nerve maturation; establishment of glial blood-brain barrier; septate junction assembly; axon ensheathment. 7 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: salivary gland; trichogen cell; abdominal lateral pentascolopidial chordotonal organ lch5. It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide. Protein features are: C-type lectin; C-type lectin fold; C-type lectin-like; Fibronectin type III domain; Fibronectin, type III; Herpesvirus UL45-like; Immunoglobulin I-set; Immunoglobulin subtype; Immunoglobulin subtype 2; Immunoglobulin-like; Immunoglobulin-like fold. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of moderate expression. Peak expression observed within 12-18 embryonic stages. . |
