Abd-B

The gene Abdominal B is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol DmelAbd-B (CG11648, FBgn0000015). It is a protein_coding_gene from Dmel. It has 10 annotated transcripts and 10 polypeptides (4 unique). Gene sequence location is 3R:16927212..16972236. Its molecular function is described by: DNA-binding transcription factor activity; transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding; DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. It is involved in the biological process described with 26 unique terms, many of which group under: nucleic acid metabolic process; organic substance biosynthetic process; imaginal disc-derived genitalia development; negative regulation of female receptivity; regulation of apoptotic process. 241 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles manifest in: embryonic abdomen; parasegment 12; larval abdominal segment 9; embryonic dorsal vessel; imaginal disc primordium. The phenotypic classes of alleles include: sterile; phenotype; cell number defective; cell death defective. 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 at stages throughout embryogenesis.
