Click to get a list of regulatory features (enhancers, TFBS, etc.) and gene disruptions (point mutations, indels, etc.) within or overlapping Dmel\ks-2 using the Feature Mapper tool.
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.
Males deficient for ks-2 are sterile. The earliest departure from normal spermiogenesis is the abnormal alignment of the axoneme with the furrow demarcating the two halves of the nebenkern. Subsequent development of the major and minor mitochondrial derivatives and their interactions with endoplasmic reticulum grossly abnormal (Hardy, Tokuyasu and Lindsley, 1981).
Williamson (1972) reported eleven noncomplementing and eleven complementing alleles induced by EMS.
