zen

The gene zerknullt is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmelzen (CG1046, FBgn0004053). It is a protein_coding_gene from Dmel. It has one annotated transcript and one polypeptide. Gene sequence location is 3R:6752864..6754194. Its molecular function is described by: sequence-specific DNA binding; DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding. It is involved in the biological process described with: amnioserosa formation; positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; compound eye development; regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. 31 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles manifest in: embryo; ectodermal derivative; external compound sense organ; acellular anatomical structure; non-connected developing system. The phenotypic classes of alleles include: wild-type; lethal - all die before end of embryonic stage; viable; some die during embryonic stage; lethal. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of no expression detected. Peak expression observed within 00-06 hour embryonic stages.
