Component of the Rhino-Deadlock-Cutoff (RDC) complex, composed of rhi/rhino, del/deadlock and cuff/cutoff (PubMed:24906153). Interacts with rhi/rhino; this interaction is indirect and is mediated by del/deadlock (PubMed:21952049, PubMed:24906153, PubMed:25085419). Interacts with del/deadlock (via C-terminal); this interaction is direct (PubMed:24906153). Interacts with Rat1 (PubMed:27292797).

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.

monoclonal
The cuff locus affects early oogenesis: mutations cause the production of few, defective germ cells.
