Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: generation of neurons; locomotor rhythm.
5 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: s-LNv neuron; LNd neuron; l-LNv neuron.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Helix-loop-helix DNA-binding; Helix-loop-helix DNA-binding domain.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderate expression to a trough of very low expression.
Peak expression observed within 06-24 hour embryonic stages.
