ato

The gene atonal is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmelato (CG7508, FBgn0010433). It is a protein_coding_gene from Dmel. It has one annotated transcript and one polypeptide. Gene sequence location is 3R:8278052..8279274. Its molecular function is described by: DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding; protein heterodimerization activity. It is involved in the biological process described with 19 unique terms, many of which group under: mating; sensory perception of sound; neuron development; oenocyte development; brain development. 49 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles manifest in: supraesophageal ganglion neuron; Johnston organ; embryonic antennal sense organ; morphogenetic furrow; embryonic/larval oenocyte precursor. The phenotypic classes of alleles include: phenotype; lethal - all die before end of second instar larval stage; increased mortality during development; behavior defective. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of no expression detected. Peak expression observed within 06-12 hour embryonic stages.
