Gene Summary
julius seizure (jus) encodes a two-transmembrane domain protein expressed in selected neurons in the optic lobe, subesophageal and thoracic-abdominal ganglia. It is mainly localized to axons and its developmental expression prevents epileptogenesis. [Date last reviewed: 2018-11-08] (FlyBase Gene Snapshot)

    Model Confidence:
    • Very high (pLDDT > 90)
    • Confident (90 > pLDDT > 70)
    • Low (70 > pLDDT > 50)
    • Very low (pLDDT < 50)

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

          Additional comments

          The gene corresponding to the CG5518 annotation was named 'sda, slamdance', based mainly on the bang sensitive phenotypes associated with sda[iso7.8] (FBal0060899), described in FBrf0083354 and FBrf0155803. However, FBrf0235003 presents evidence that FBal0060899 instead maps to CG14509. Thus in FB2017_04, FBal0060899 and other unmapped alleles with bang sensitive phenotypes have been moved to CG14509, while those alleles and insertions mapping molecularly to the CG5518 annotation are retained with this gene. The CG5518 annotation has been renamed to CG46339 to avoid confusion.

          Annotations CG14509, CG14510 merged as CG14509 in release 3 of the genome annotation.

          Source for merge of CG14509 CG14510 was a shared cDNA ( date:010720 ).
