pb

The gene proboscipedia is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmelpb (CG31481, FBgn0051481). It is a protein_coding_gene from Dmel. It has 4 annotated transcripts and 4 polypeptides (all unique). Gene sequence location is 3R:6707800..6742063. 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. It is involved in the biological process described with: proboscis development; regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; specification of segmental identity, labial segment; specification of segmental identity, maxillary segment. 98 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles manifest in: anterior endoderm derivative; ganglion; head capsule; mesothoracic leg; embryonic procephalic segment. The phenotypic classes of alleles include: lethal; some die during pupal stage; visible; short lived; lethal - all die before end of pupal stage; wild-type. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of low expression to a trough of extremely low expression. Peak expression observed within 06-24 hour embryonic stages, during early larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period.
