Gene Description

Regeneration is a secretory-pathway C-type-lectin-domain protein implicated in imaginal-disc regeneration. Genetic perturbation affects blastema formation and growth, while its ligand specificity and the relationship between the 808-residue isoform and its inferred trans-Golgi localization remain unresolved.

GO Term Evidence Action Reason
GO:0005802 trans-Golgi network
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
UNDECIDED
Summary: Trans-Golgi-network residence is unresolved for the exact long isoform.
Reason: The IBA is a curated phylogenetic assertion. The 808-residue record contains an N-terminal signal peptide and a C-type lectin domain; those features establish secretory-pathway compatibility but do not distinguish soluble secretion from Golgi residence.

GO_REF:0000033
UNDECIDED
Summary: Transport-vesicle residence needs a resolved localization inference.
Reason: A signal peptide and lectin fold do not identify a trans-Golgi transport vesicle. No exact-isoform localization experiment or resolved ancestral assertion is available in the inspected evidence.

IEA
GO_REF:0000104
UNDECIDED
Summary: A C-type lectin-like fold does not establish carbohydrate binding.
Reason: Several proteins retain this fold without the canonical carbohydrate-binding activity. The exact target has no mapped ligand-binding assay.

UNDECIDED
Summary: The ISS lectin-binding transfer needs more specific support.
Reason: PMID:16475980 directly assays DL1 and discusses Drosophila lectins. It supplies useful family biology but does not establish carbohydrate binding by the long Rgn isoform; target-specific ligand or conserved-binding-site evidence is required.

Summary: Regeneration-associated expression supports physiological context.
Reason: PMID:18485344 reports rgn expression in regenerating blastema cells. Expression alone does not define a molecular function; the accompanying genetic evidence supports the biological role.

ACCEPT
Summary: Rgn contributes to imaginal-disc regeneration.
Reason: The full text of PMID:18485344 maps rgn alleles to CG6014 and reports altered blastema regeneration after genetic perturbation. The gene-level process is well supported although the molecular mechanism and isoform contributions remain unresolved.
