Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
It is reported to have molecular function: electron carrier activity.
An electronic pipeline based on InterPro domains suggests that it is involved in the biological process: oxidation-reduction process; fatty acid biosynthetic process.
2 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: Cytochrome b5; Cytochrome b5, heme-binding site; Fatty acid desaturase, type 1; Fatty acid/sphingolipid desaturase.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of very low expression.
Peak expression observed at stages throughout the larval period, in stages of adults of both sexes.
