LINS1: Proteins and Enzymes

The Drosophila segment polarity gene lin encodes a protein, lines, which plays important roles in development of the epidermis and hindgut. This gene encodes a protein containing a lines-like domain. This gene is located on chromosome 15 and clustered with the gene encoding ankyrin repeat and SOCS box-containing protein 7. Multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
