Adaptor protein complex 3 (AP-3) is a heterotetramer composed of two large chains (delta and beta3), a medium chain (mu3) and a small chain (sigma3).

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).
Comment: maternally deposited
Comment: highest expression levels at 0-6 hr AEL, and in female adults

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.
Shows genomic imprinting on Dp(1;f)LJ9. These variegating phenotypes persist for one generation only, i.e. is reset by passage through the germ line. The imprint is a response to the physiological sex of the parent, and does not depend on the particular allele of g opposite Dp(1;f)LJ9. Factors that affect position effect variegation influence the somatic expression but not the establishment of the imprinting.
The eye pigmentation defect of g mutants suggests the protein is required for proper biogenesis of eye pigment granules.
Eye color brownish, darkening with age; both pteridine and ommochrome pigments variably reduced in different alleles, giving rise to such descriptions as deep purplish ruby, pinkish, brownish, yellowish ruby, orange, etc.
Lesions in g reduce or eliminate pigmentation in the eyes and ocelli and block pigmentation of the fat body and tubules: g is required for normal pigmentation of all four tissues.
Pteridines (neodrosopterin, drosopterin, isodrosopterin, aurodrosopterin, 6-acetyl-dihydrohomopterin, sepiapterin, dihydrobiopterin, biopterin, pterin and isoxanthopterin) have been quantified in single and double mutants.
It is likely that this gene is required for the normal transport of eye-pigment precursors.
Pigmentation of Malpighian tubules also reduced.
