Summary Information
Automatically generated summary See sections below for more information	The gene ken and barbie is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\ken (CG5575, FBgn0011236). It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity; nucleic acid binding. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: imaginal disc-derived female genitalia development; female analia development; male analia development; insemination; imaginal disc-derived male genitalia development; regulation of JAK-STAT cascade; phagocytosis, engulfment. 29 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: organ system subdivision; organ system; region of integument; adult segment; adult; antennal segment; larval abdominal segment; spiracle; vagina; late extended germ band embryo. It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide. Protein features are: BTB/POZ; BTB/POZ fold; BTB/POZ-like; Zinc finger, C2H2; Zinc finger, C2H2-like; Zinc finger, C2H2-type/integrase, DNA-binding. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of low expression. Peak expression observed within 12-18 embryonic stages. Summary of FlyAtlas Anatomical Expression Data: Expression at moderate levels in the following post-embryonic organs or tissues: adult crop, adult hindgut, adult Malpighian tubules, larval/adult salivary gland, larval trachea, adult female reproductive system, larval/adult carcass. Comments on Affy2 ProbeSet: ProbeSet 1628840_at completely aligns to an exonic region of the only FlyBase-annotated transcript isoform of ken. Gene sequence location is 2R:19757798..19764965.

Additional Descriptive Data
	ken transcripts are first detected in early stage 5 embryos in two circumferential rings around the embryo at 17% and 64% egg length. At the end of stage 5, they co-localize with the first and seventh ftz stripes. The anterior stripe fades while the staining in the posterior domain persists until the end of embyrogenesis in the posterior spiracles. Expression is also observed at stage 16 in the foregut, the proventriculus, the dorsal pouch, the hindgut, and the anal pads. (Kuhnlein et al., 1998) Northern analysis indicates that expression of ken is higher during embryonic and pupal stages than in larval stages. Expression of ken is higher in adult females than in males. ken transcript is expressed ubiquitously in both male and female genital discs and eye-antennal discs. In the embryo ken transcript is detected in stage 5 blastoderm embryos as 2 stripes at 64% and 17% egg length. Expression is stronger with the anterior expression just posterior to the cephalic furrow and posterior expression confined to the hindgut primordium. Anterior expression disappears by stage 9 and then reappears in the foregut at stage 15. Posterior expression is confined to the hindgut and anal pad. (Lukacsovich et al., 2003)

	S2 cells treated with dsRNA generated against this gene show reduced phagocytosis of Candida albicans compared to untreated cells. (Stroschein-Stevenson et al., 2006) RNAi generated by PCR using primers directed to this gene causes a cell growth and viability phenotype when assayed in Kc167 and S2R+ cells. (Boutros et al., 2004) Mutants show malformation of adult terminalia. (Lukacsovich et al., 2003) Identification: Enhancer trap expression pattern survey for loci expressed in the ring gland. (Harvie et al., 1998) Mutant homozygous males prematurely terminate copulation. (Yamamoto et al., 1997) Sperm transfer defect. (Castrillon et al., 1993) Locus originally described and named by C.
