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).

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.
The veg genetic complementation group was previously associated with the CG6657 annotation in FlyBase, based on flanking sequence of the "veg[k07202]" insertion allele. However, FBrf0218440 shows that alleles of the veg complementation group complement mutations that have been mapped to the CG6657 annotation and concludes that the phenotypes described for the veg complementation group are not due to an effect on CG6657 but are due to a defect in another locus. The CG6657 annotation has thus been split out int a separate gene from veg in release 5.49 of the genome annotation, and has been renamed "CG44239" to avoid confusion.
The locus that is affected by the veg complementation group is not known. The location of the insertion is unmapped in many of the alleles. For those insertion alleles where the flanking sequence has been obtained, the flanking sequences map to different regions of the genome and in some cases, reversion of the veg mutant phenotype has not been obtained by excision of the insertion, suggesting that some of the chromosomes may contain secondary lethal hit(s) (which may or may not correspond to the lesion causing the veg phenotype).
The embryonic peripheral nervous system phenotypes of the "veg" (vegetable) complementation group described in FBrf0131381 are not due to defects in CG6657, but rather due to defects in a neighbouring locus. Several of the original veg insertion alleles (vegk03402, vegk07202 and vegZ322) complement alleles that have been molecularly mapped to the CG6657 transcription unit and more precise mapping of the insertions in the mutant veg alleles indicates that they are outside of the CG6657 transcription unit.
