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).
Comment: enriched in acidic region
RNA-seq data show that Ae2 is expressed throughout the larval midgut but is enriched in the acidic region of the larval midgut.
Ae2 staining is seen in four distinct domains within the larval midgut. These are the copper cell region, a cell cluster anterior to the copper cells, the large flat cells and a more posterior cluster of 2-3 cells that may correspond to iron cells. The staining in the copper cell region localizes to the interstitial cells.

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.
