    Summary
    Involved in several processes, including chaeta morphogenesis; imaginal disc-derived wing margin morphogenesis; and ommatidial rotation. Predicted to be active in collagen-containing extracellular matrix and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including epithelial cell; epithelium; ganglia; imaginal disc; and somatic precursor cell. Used to study alcohol use disorder. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including alcohol dependence; brain ischemia; diabetic retinopathy; familial hypobetalipoproteinemia 2; and hereditary angioedema. Orthologous to several human genes including ANGPT1 (angiopoietin 1); ANGPT2 (angiopoietin 2); and ANGPT4 (angiopoietin 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

    3. These and other results obtained with a reporter line of Notch activity indicate that sca overexpression antagonizes Notch signaling in the Drosophila eye, and are inconsistent with Sca being an ommatidial rotation-specific factor.
      Title: Scabrous overexpression in the eye affects R3/R4 cell fate specification and inhibits notch signaling.
    4. Scabrous is an activator that can overcome the sensitivity of template-based lateral inhibition to spatial variations in biochemical parameters and cell sizes in eye development.
      Title: Periodic patterning of the Drosophila eye is stabilized by the diffusible activator Scabrous.
    5. Data suggest that endosomal Scabrous and Gp150 promote Notch activation in response to Delta, by regulating acquisition of insensitivity to Delta in a subset of cells.
      Title: Scabrous and Gp150 are endosomal proteins that regulate Notch activity.
    6. Notch, Delta, and Scabrous might function in complex combinatorial or mutually exclusive interactions during Drosophila development.
      Title: Delta activity independent of its activity as a ligand of Notch.
    7. Scabrous controls the stop of ommatidial rotation by suppressing nemo activity in the second 45 degrees rotation. The morphogenetic furrow regulates precise ommatidial rotation by transporting Scabrous through actin-based cellular extensions.
