Automatically generated summary

See sections below for more information
The gene four wheel drive is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\fwd (CG7004, FBgn0004373). It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: 1-phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase activity. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: male meiosis cytokinesis; contractile ring contraction involved in cell cycle cytokinesis; male germline ring canal formation; determination of adult lifespan; meiotic spindle stabilization; cytokinesis after meiosis II; spermatocyte division; spermatogenesis; cytokinesis after meiosis I. 24 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: secondary spermatocyte; Nebenkern; Nebenkern derivative; spermatid; spermatid axoneme; spermatozoon. It has 3 annotated transcripts and 3 annotated polypeptides. Protein features are: Phosphatidylinositol 3-/4-kinase, catalytic; Phosphatidylinositol 3/4-kinase, conserved site; Phosphatidylinositol Kinase; Protein kinase-like domain. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of moderate expression. Peak expression observed at stages throughout embryogenesis, during late larval stages, at stages throughout the pupal period, in stages of adults of both sexes. Summary of FlyAtlas Anatomical Expression Data: Nearly all larval and adult tissues/organs expressed at moderate levels. Expression at moderate levels in the following post-embryonic organs or tissues: adult head, adult eye, larval/adult central nervous system, adult crop, larval/adult midgut, larval/adult hindgut, larval/adult Malpighian tubules, adult heart, larval/adult fat body, larval/adult salivary gland, larval trachea, adult female reproductive system, adult male reproductive system, adult carcass. Comments on Affy2 ProbeSet: ProbeSet 1634509_s_at completely aligns to an exonic region common to each of the 3 FlyBase-annotated transcript isoforms of fwd. Gene sequence location is 3L:306207..319880.

hide Phenotypic Description from the Red Book (Lindsley & Zimm 1992)
Gene/Allele symbols may differ from current usage
fwd: four wheel drive (M. Fuller)
Recessive male sterile. Failure of cytokinesis after meiosis I and meiosis II in males, usually resulting in onion stage early spermatids with four equal sized nuclei associated with a single, large mitochondrial derivative. Cells in meiosis II contain two spindles. Females fertile.

dsRNA made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene tested in RNAi screen for effects on Kc167 and S2R+ cell morphology.
Area matching Drosophila EST AI297362.
fwd is required for intercellular bridge formation during cytokinesis in male meiosis.
Mutations of fwd affect the morphology and behaviour of the mitotic spindles of embryonic cleavage divisions to produce multipolar spindles in male meiosis and generate abnormal mitotic figures in larval neuroblasts.
