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

Component of the Spt-Ada-Gcn5 acetyltransferase (SAGA) complex consisting of wda/Taf5L, Saf6, Taf9, Taf10b, Taf12, Ada1, Spt3, Spt7, Spt20, Sf3b3, Sf3b5, Nipped-A/Tra1, a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) module made up of Gcn5, Ada2b (Isoform B), Ada3 and Sgf29, and a deubiquitinase (DUB) module made up of not/nonstop, Sgf11 and e(y)2 tethered to SAGA by Atxn7; not essential for SAGA complex assembly, histone-modifying activity or chromosomal recruitment (PubMed:20008933, PubMed:21764853, PubMed:24493646, PubMed:30559249, PubMed:34807910). Interacts (via N-terminal histone-fold domain) with Taf9 (via N-terminal histone-fold domain); the interaction is probably direct (PubMed:20008933). Probably forms a histone-like heterooctamer structure with Taf9, Taf12 and Taf10b (Probable).

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.
