First expressed in 4-8 hours old embryos, peaks in 8-12 hours old embryos and continues through development up to late larval stage. In the head region, detected at stage 10 in the maxillary and labial segment primordia, and in later stages, in the prospective antennal and mandibular segment. In the epidermis, expression is seen from stage 11 in thoracic and abdominal lateral patches. Expression in the intestinal tract begins at stage 13, continues through stages 14 and 15 in the endoderm of the anterior midgut and at stage 16, is found in the posterior end. Expression in the imaginal disks is seen from late third-instar larvae in the prospective thorax, claw organ, antenna, scutellum and wing blade.1 Publication

<p>The checksum is a form of redundancy check that is calculated from the sequence. It is useful for tracking sequence updates.</p> <p>It should be noted that while, in theory, two different sequences could have the same checksum value, the likelihood that this would happen is extremely low.</p> <p>However UniProtKB may contain entries with identical sequences in case of multiple genes (paralogs).</p> <p>The checksum is computed as the sequence 64-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check value (CRC64) using the generator polynomial: x<sup>64</sup> + x<sup>4</sup> + x<sup>3</sup> + x + 1. The algorithm is described in the ISO 3309 standard. </p> <p class="publication">Press W.H., Flannery B.P., Teukolsky S.A. and Vetterling W.T.<br /> <strong>Cyclic redundancy and other checksums</strong><br /> <a href="http://www.nrbook.com/b/bookcpdf.php">Numerical recipes in C 2nd ed., pp896-902, Cambridge University Press (1993)</a>)</p> Checksum:i7641316A4A77BD8D
