Tbp

The gene TATA binding protein is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol DmelTbp (CG9874, FBgn0003687). It is a protein_coding_gene from Dmel. It has one annotated transcript and one polypeptide. Gene sequence location is 2R:21686192..21687642. Its molecular function is described by 9 unique terms, many of which group under: transcription regulator activity; general transcription initiation factor activity; molecular function regulator; protein binding; nucleic acid binding. It is involved in the biological process described with 9 unique terms, many of which group under: mRNA transcription; tRNA transcription by RNA polymerase III; cellular component organization or biogenesis; RNA polymerase II preinitiation complex assembly; tRNA transcription. 21 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles manifest in: eye; adult brain; rhabdomere. The phenotypic classes of alleles include: visible; locomotor behavior defective; lethal - all die before end of first instar larval stage; some die during first instar larval stage; neuroanatomy defective; short lived. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of low expression. Peak expression observed within 00-06 hour embryonic stages.
