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 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.

asl protein is closely associated with the centriole wall, but is not part of the centriole structure.
asl is required for centriole duplication.
asl is involved in centriole duplication and is required for efficient recruitment of pericentriolar material.
Expression is enriched in embryonic gonads.
Identification: in a genetic screen for mutants defective in mechanosensation.
Mutants have severe defects in mechanosensory transduction.
asl is required for aster formation during male meiosis.
Mutants are male sterile with no spindle aster in primary spermatocytes.
