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).

E(spl) genes were found to be differentially expressed during metamorphosis. E(spl)mα-BFM levels are low during wandering third instar stage, show a 1.5 fold increase from early to late third instar, a 3.3 fold increase at pupariation formation, and a 2.3 fold increase 2-3 hours post-puparium formation. E(spl)mα-BFM is one of 4 genes to increase in expression at puparium formation and one of 5 genes that shows an increase at 2-3 hours post-puparium formation.

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.
The distinct expression patterns of genes of the E(spl) complex in imaginal tissues depend to a significant degree on the capacity of their transcriptional cis-regulatory apparatus to respond selectively to direct proneural and Su(H)-mediated activation, often in a subset of the territories and cells in which proneural and Su(H) regulation is occurring.
One of the Enhancer-of-split complex.
