Comments on Gene Model

Gene model incomplete due to gap in genomic sequence (terminal domain is truncated); polypeptide sequences represent the complete gene, based on GenBank accession KR781487.

Within a region on the Y chromosome that appears to have been originally derived from a contiguous region on 3R; the 3R region includes CG11844, CG10238, Clbn (CG11847), and CG11848.
