AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.
Gene model reviewed during 5.51

There is only one protein coding transcript and one polypeptide associated with this gene
570 (aa); 66 (kD predicted)
Homodimer; at the zf-AD.
The N-terminal zf-AD is an atypical treble-clef like zinc binding domain which enables dimerization, and appears not to have any DNA-binding ability. DNA binding is achieved through the zinc fingers at the C-terminus.

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
grau transcripts are detected in ovaries, embryos, larvae, pupae, adult males, and adult females with ovaries removed.

Mapping uses male recombination stimulated by P\TΔ2-3.
Please Note FlyBase no longer curates genomic clone accessions so this list may not be complete
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.
Mutations in grau result in a maternal effect phenotype with defects during syncytial blastoderm formation.
