Abstract
The Drosophila kikkawai feature with NCBI Gene ID 108084518 was determined to be an ortholog of Drosophila melanogaster Sox102F , a member of the FlyBase High Mobility Group Box Transcription Factors gene group (FBgg0000748). Five isoforms were constructed using the GEP F element annotation protocol, the longest being novel isoform Sox102F-PNE (identified using the XM_017180752 RefSeq prediction and RNA-seq data). Among the isoforms found in both D. melanogaster and D. kikkawai , Sox102F-PB is the longest and exhibits a 1.18x coding span expansion due to transposable element insertion into an intron. All D. kikkawai protein isoforms contain the conserved domain HMG_box_dom (IPR009071).
