msl-2

The gene male-specific lethal 2 is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmelmsl-2 (CG3241, FBgn0005616). It is a protein_coding_gene from Dmel. It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 polypeptides (1 unique). Gene sequence location is 2L:3462218..3466112. Its molecular function is described by: chromatin binding; DNA binding; ubiquitin protein ligase activity; transcription factor binding. It is involved in the biological process described with 7 unique terms, many of which group under: macromolecule metabolic process; protein metabolic process; dosage compensation by hyperactivation of X chromosome; gene expression; regulation of metabolic process. 84 alleles are reported. The phenotype of these alleles manifest in: eye. The phenotypic classes of alleles include: partially lethal; phenotype; increased mortality during development; increased mortality. 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 00-12 hour embryonic stages.
