Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: protein binding.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: regulation of pole plasm oskar mRNA localization; oogenesis; neurogenesis.
4 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: trichogen cell; mesothoracic tergum.
It has 3 annotated transcripts and 3 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: Nascent polypeptide-associated complex NAC; Nascent polypeptide-associated complex, alpha subunit.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of extremely high expression to a trough of high expression.
Peak expression observed within 06-12 hour embryonic stages, during early larval stages.
