Automatically generated summary

See sections below for more information
The gene meiotic W68 is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\mei-W68 (CG7753, FBgn0002716). It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: DNA topoisomerase (ATP-hydrolyzing) activity. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: reciprocal meiotic recombination; oogenesis; early meiotic recombination nodule assembly; late meiotic recombination nodule assembly. 13 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: early recombination nodule; late recombination nodule. It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide. Protein features are: DNA topoisomerase VI, subunit A; Spo11/DNA topoisomerase VI, subunit A. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of low expression to a trough of very low expression. Peak expression observed within 06-12 hour embryonic stages. Summary of FlyAtlas Anatomical Expression Data: No expression detected in any larval or adult organs/tissues. Comments on Affy2 ProbeSet: ProbeSet 1634534_at completely aligns to an exonic region of the only FlyBase-annotated transcript isoform of mei-W68. Gene sequence location is 2R:15343700..15347029.

hide Phenotypic Description from the Red Book (Lindsley & Zimm 1992)
Gene/Allele symbols may differ from current usage
mei-W68 (R.S. Hawley)
Females homozygous for mei-w68 show a complete absence of meiotic recombination (Baker, unpublished data). Ultrastructural studies of pachytene reveal an absence of chromosome condensation and little synaptonemal complex (Carpenter, cited in Baker et al., 1976). A less severe allele (mei-w68L1-Lindsley) reduces exchange to approximately 60% of control levels and also alters the distribution of residual exchanges. Analysis of mitotic chromosome behavior (Baker et al., 1978) suggests that the mei-w68+ gene product is also required in mitotic cells.

Additional comments
One or more of the processed transcripts for this gene share(s) untranslated sequences with a transcript of an adjacent gene, but encode(s) a single open reading frame (ORF). The non-overlapping ORFs that share untranslated sequences are represented by par-1 and mei-W68.
mei-W68 shares a promoter and 5'-UTR with the N1 class of par-1 transcripts and the coding sequence of mei-W68 falls entirely within the first par-1 intron.

Intragenic recombination at ry is used as an assay of the effects of mutation on meiotic crossing over.
