AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.
Low-frequency RNA-Seq exon junction(s) not annotated.
Gene model reviewed during 5.49
None of the polypeptides share 100% sequence identity.
Interacts (via loop 2 of the three-fingered Ly-6 domain) with Sh/shaker; this interaction may stabilize both components of the complex and may be required for targeting or retention of Sh/shaker to neural cell projections (PubMed:20010822, PubMed:24613312, PubMed:26828958). Interacts (via loop 2 of the three-fingered Ly-6 domain) with nAChRalpha3 and potentially other nicotinic acetylcholine receptors; this interaction is required for antagonism of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (PubMed:24613312, PubMed:26828958).
N-glycosylated probably on Asn-57.
Consists of a single Ly-6 domain, adopting a three finger fold stabilized by 5 disulfide bonds (Probable). The first loop contains a region essential for protein folding or that is required for localization to the cell surface (PubMed:26828958). The second loop mediates protein-protein interactions (PubMed:24613312, PubMed:26828958).

The testis specificity index was calculated from modENCODE tissue expression data by Vedelek et al., 2018 to indicate the degree of testis enrichment compared to other tissues. Scores range from -2.52 (underrepresented) to 5.2 (very high testis bias).
qvr is expressed in a group of visual projection neurons (VPN fibers) that send processes to the lobula plate.

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 JBrowse 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.
qvr is required for both normal baseline sleep and or rebound sleep after deprivation.
Annotation CG30032 renamed to CG33472 in release 3.2 of the genome annotation.
New annotation (CG30032) in release 3 of the genome annotation.
qvr mutants show paraquat sensitivity as well as a leg shaking phenotype.
