ewg

The gene erect wing is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmelewg (CG3114, FBgn0005427). It is a protein_coding_gene from Dmel. It has 13 annotated transcripts and 13 polypeptides (12 unique). Gene sequence location is X:268509..279718. Its molecular function is described by: RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding; DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; DNA binding. It is involved in the biological process described with 7 unique terms, many of which group under: muscle structure development; negative regulation of nervous system development; positive regulation of cell communication; epithelial tube morphogenesis; biosynthetic process. 61 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles manifest in: cell component; larva; synapse; peripheral nervous system; nervous system. The phenotypic classes of alleles include: increased mortality during development; increased mortality; lethal; phenotype. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of low expression. Peak expression observed within 06-18 hour embryonic stages.
