In the adult brain, a subset of neurons labelled with loj protein co-express the peptidergic marker Scer\GAL4dimm-929. In the abdominal ganglion, expression co-localises with the octopaminergic marker Scer\GAL4ptc-559.1.

Please Note This section lists cDNAs and ESTs that fall within the genomic extent of the gene model, which may include cDNAs and ESTs of genes within introns, or of overlapping genes. Please see GBrowse for alignment of the cDNAs and ESTs to the gene model.
For each fully sequenced cDNA the DGRC maintains various forms of the cDNA (e.g tagged or untagged) in several different host vectors for subsequent cloning and expression in Drosophila and Drosophila cell lines.

Identification: In a screen for genes involved in female-specific reproductive behaviors.
Mutations in loj cause the loss of oviposition behavior and the retention of mature eggs in the oviducts and uteruses of mated mutant females.
The gene is named "logjam" after the mutant phenotype; in mutant females, one or more mature eggs become lodged within the genital tract, causing a "logjam" of eggs within the female and preventing the release of eggs.
