Protein attributes

Sequence length	854 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Protein existence	Evidence at transcript level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	May function in EGF receptor signaling. May play a role in compound eye morphogenesis. Ref.5
Tissue specificity	Expressed in the proliferative tissues of embryos and in the mitotically active tissue anterior to the morphogenetic furrow in eye imaginal disks. Ref.5
Developmental stage	Expressed at higher levels during the embryonic and pupal stages of development. Expressed in proliferating tissues of the presumptive mesoderm in stage 7 gastrulating embryos. Expressed in the mesectoderm and anterior and posterior midgut primordia of stage 9 embryos. Also expressed in proliferating cells of the central nervous system during germ-band retraction. Ref.5
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the asteroid family.
Sequence caution	The sequence AAC05483.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Frameshift at position 800.
