FBgn0250789 | alpha-Spec

The gene alpha Spectrin is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmelalpha-Spec (CG1977, FBgn0250789). It is a protein_coding_gene from Dmel. It has 5 annotated transcripts and 5 polypeptides (4 unique). Gene sequence location is 3L:1778485..1795328. Its molecular function is described by: microtubule binding; actin binding; calcium ion binding. It is involved in the biological process described with 12 unique terms, many of which group under: synapse organization; cell communication; membrane organization; microtubule-based process; cellular component maintenance. 56 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles manifest in: plasma membrane region; secretory vesicle; midline crossing tract; anterior-posterior subdivision of organism; postsynaptic membrane. The phenotypic classes of alleles include: phenotype; increased mortality; lethal - all die before end of larval stage; some die during larval stage. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of moderately high expression. Peak expression observed within 06-24 hour embryonic stages, during early larval stages.
