Gene model for the ortholog of Mipp2 in Drosophila simulans.

Abstract

Presenting a gene model for the ortholog of multiple inositol polyphosphate phosphatase 2 ( Mipp2 ) in the May 2017 (Princeton ASM75419v2/DsimGB2) Genome Assembly (GenBank Accession: GCA_000754195.3 ) of Drosophila simulans . This ortholog was characterized as part of a developing dataset to study the evolution of the Insulin/insulin-like growth factor signaling pathway (IIS) across the genus Drosophila using the Genomics Education Partnership gene annotation protocol for Course-based Undergraduate Research Experiences.
