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).

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.
Used in a phylogenetic analysis, the tree in inferred by parsimony method from RpoB sequences, or homologous, multiple alignment.
Designation as "RpII215" was in error.
Isolation of the coding sequence and immunoblotting experiments demonstrate the RpII15 gene codes for a small subunit of RNA polymerase II.
The technique of paramagnetic particle-mediated selection of terminated run-on transcripts was used to examine RNA polymerase II pausing and 5' cap formation at high resolution on the heat shock genes Hsp70A, Hsp70B, Hsp26 and Hsp27. Results demonstrate that polymerases pause over a narrow region of each heat shock gene, not at a defined point. 5' capping occurs over a region coincidental with that of pausing.
Protein complexes of RNA polymerase II localise to major developmental puffs and heat shock puffs.
RpII15 is an essential gene required maternally for embryogenesis.
