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: central nervous system development; lateral inhibition; axon target recognition. 12 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: RP5 neuron; EW1 neuron; RP3 neuron; intersegmental nerve; EW3 neuron; RP1 neuron; presumptive embryonic/larval central nervous system; RP4 neuron; EW2 neuron. It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide. Protein features are: Homeobox; Homeobox, conserved site; Homeobox, eukaryotic; Homeodomain-like; Homeodomain-related. 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, at stages throughout the larval period, during early pupal stages. . |
