    Summary
    Involved in several processes, including autophagic cell death; regulation of cell development; and terminal branching, open tracheal system. Located in axon; dendrite; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including embryonic/larval tracheal section; ganglia; gonad; imaginal disc primordium; and larval imaginal tissue. Orthologous to human HECA (hdc homolog, cell cycle regulator). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
