ey

The gene eyeless is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmeley (CG1464, FBgn0005558). It is a protein_coding_gene from Dmel. It has 4 annotated transcripts and 4 polypeptides (all unique). Gene sequence location is 4:697689..721173. Its molecular function is described by: sequence-specific DNA binding; protein binding; DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding; RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding. It is involved in the biological process described with 20 unique terms, many of which group under: head development; brain development; adult locomotory behavior; chemical homeostasis; eye morphogenesis. 86 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles manifest in: ipsilateral tract; rhabdomere; maxillary palpus; cell body rind of medulla; mushroom body medial lobe. The phenotypic classes of alleles include: lethal - all die before end of P-stage; increased mortality; lethal - all die before end of larval stage; phenotype. 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 within 06-12 hour embryonic stages.
