AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.

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).
spaw transcripts are detected at low levels in primary spermatocytes and are barely detected in early elongation spermatids. Robust signals are detected in more elongated spermatids at the distal ends. Transcripts localize into a ball shape at the ends of spermatids bundles, trailing away proximally to a less abundant, speckled distribution (called a comet pattern).

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 gene is named "spacewatch", based on the "comet"-like pattern of expression of the transcript in spermatid bundles; the mRNA localises into a ball shape at the end of the spermatid bundle, trailing away proximally to a less abundant, speckled distribution.
