F45G2.4 encodes an epsilon subunit of the coatomer (COPI) complex; in mass RNAi assays, F45G2.4 is required for larval viability, proper locomotion, and properly rapid growth.
Predicted to enable structural molecule activity. Predicted to be involved in endoplasmic reticulum to Golgi vesicle-mediated transport and intra-Golgi vesicle-mediated transport. Located in mitochondrion. Is an ortholog of human COPE (COPI coat complex subunit epsilon).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
