Automatically generated summary

See sections below for more information
The gene spindle A is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\spn-A (CG7948, FBgn0003479). It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: recombinase activity. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: germarium-derived oocyte fate determination; female meiosis; double-strand break repair via synthesis-dependent strand annealing; polarity specification of dorsal/ventral axis; intracellular mRNA localization; cell cycle checkpoint; oogenesis; polarity specification of anterior/posterior axis; karyosome formation. 29 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: germline cyst; chorion; egg; oocyte; presumptive oocyte; karyosome; egg chamber; dorsal appendage; nurse cell; synaptonemal complex. It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides. Protein features are: ATPase, AAA+ type, core; DNA recombination and repair protein Rad51, C-terminal; DNA recombination and repair protein, RecA-like; DNA recombination/repair protein Rad51; DNA recombination/repair protein RecA, monomer-monomer interface; DNA recombination/repair protein RecA/RadB, ATP-binding domain; DNA repair Rad51/transcription factor NusA, alpha-helical; Helix-hairpin-helix DNA-binding motif, class 1. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of low expression. Peak expression observed within 00-12 hour embryonic stages, in adult female stages. Summary of FlyAtlas Anatomical Expression Data: Expression at moderate levels in the following post-embryonic organs or tissues: adult ovary. Comments on Affy2 ProbeSet: ProbeSet 1640738_a_at completely aligns to an exonic region common to each of the 2 FlyBase-annotated transcript isoforms of spn-A. Gene sequence location is 3R:25880418..25881767.

Gene/Allele symbols may differ from current usage
spn-A: spindle A
Maternal-effect lethal. Egg shape affected; in extreme cases dorsal appendages are lacking and eggs have little or no dorsal-ventral polarity; some eggs have one fused dorsal appendage. Low fecundity; eggs often slightly collapsed.

Analysis of mutants of the 5 spindle genes (spn-A, spn-B, mus301, spn-D and spn-E) reveals that the group of genes is required for each of the symmetry-breaking steps that generate polarity during axis formation. spn-E is required for the localisation of fs(1)K10, bcd and osk mRNAs, spn-A. spn-B, mus301 and spn-D play an indirect role in this process.
Isolation and preliminary molecular analysis of spn-A.
spn-A has been cloned and sequenced.
Mutations in the spn-A, spn-B and spn-D genes result in a very similar phenotype to those in mus301, and in all cases the misplacement of the oocyte has the same consequences on the establishment of AP polarity in the egg chamber, as determined by the slbo expression in the follicle cells and the localization of osk and bcd mRNAs within the oocyte.
