Comment: maternally deposited
snama protein is expressed abundantly and ubiquitously in the blastoderm and reaches lower levels by the cellular blastoderm, at which point, higher concentrations are localized in the ventral furrow and in germ cells. In the blastoderm, snama protein is present in all of the synchronous pre-blastoderm stage nuclei, but later, it is found in the cortical nuclei and absent in the mitotically inactive yolk nuclei. It is present in nurse cell nuclei.

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 GBrowse 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.

mnm appears to be required in proliferative cells, but not in postmitotic cells, in the developing eye.
Because mutant clones in the developing eye posterior to the morphogenetic furrow differentiate as apparently perfect, yet tiny copies of their wild-type twin spots, the gene is named "mini-me" (Myers M. and M. McCullers, 1999, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. New Line Cinema, Los Angeles).
