Protein involved in outer spore wall assembly; likely involved directly in dityrosine layer assembly; may be involved in response to high salt and changes in carbon source; SWAT-GFP, seamless-GFP and mCherry fusion proteins localize to the endoplasmic reticulum; deletion mutant has decreased spore survival in Drosophila feces; OSW7 has a paralog, SHE10, that arose from the whole genome duplication; paralogs are redundant for spore wall dityrosine assembly [Source:SGD;Acc:S000001935]
Chromosome VI: 232,012-233,544 reverse strand.
R64-1-1:BK006940.2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant) and 1 paralogue.
