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

In in vitro assays, purified native or recombinant Nlp protein coimmunoprecipitates with core histones. In a reaction containing DNA, purified core histones, ATP and partially purified CAF1 fraction, the longer Nlp protein was able to promote assembly of approximately regularly spaced nucleosome arrays, while the shorter Nlp protein could not. When Nap1 and Nlp proteins were compared, only Nap1 was able to promote sperm decondensation in Xenopus laevis sperm chromatin (contrast this with the
results of FBrf0093082).
The shorter Nlp protein lacks 31 N-terminal residues found in the longer protein; this deletion abolishes the specificity of interaction with core histones.
Decamer formed by two pentameric rings associated in a head-to-head fashion.

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 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.
Nlp is a nuclear protein present throughout development. Purified and recombinant proteins bind to core histones and can function in the assembly of approximately regularly spaced nucleosomal arrays.
