AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.
This duplication of the Hsp70Bb gene is present in certain strains including y; cn bw sp, which was sequenced in the Drosophila genome project, but not others. See FBrf0137034 and personal communication of Brian Bettencourt to FlyBase for details.

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.
Some Drosophila strains, including that sequenced in the Drosophila genome project have three, not two, tandemly repeated Hsp70 genes at 87C1 (in addition to a reverse orientation Hsp70 gene, Hsp70Ba, approximately 40kb upstream). The distal-most gene of the three tandem copies is Hsp70Bc. The inner two tandem copies are Hsp70Bb and Hsp70Bbb.
The D.melanogaster strain used for sequencing the genome contains an additional, third tandem copy of an Hsp70 gene at 87C as well as the two tandemly repeated copies (Hsp70Bb and Hsp70Bc) which are found in many strains. This additional copy is named "Hsp70Bbb" (see FBrf0137034 and Bettencourt, 2002.1.16, personal communication to FlyBase).
