Gene Symbol | Mlpt |
Entrez Gene ID | 100188892 |
Full Name | mille-pattes |
Gene Type | protein-coding |
Organism | Acyrthosiphon pisum(pea aphid) |
Summary | This locus is similar to a gap-family segmentation gene in Tribolium and Drosophila. Sequence conservation and functional analyses in Drosophila suggest that the transcript is poly-cistronic and may express multiple short peptides, with at least one peptide with a LDPTGXY motif functioning in segmentation.
