Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: GTPase activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: bristle development; synaptic transmission; wing disc development; response to trehalose stimulus; sensory perception of sweet taste; neuromuscular junction development; imaginal disc-derived wing morphogenesis.
24 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 11 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system subdivision; organ system; adult segment; nervous system; adult mesothoracic segment; mouthpart; somatic cell; gustatory sensory organ; synapse; integumentary specialisation; embryonic/larval fat body; integumentary plate.
It has 4 annotated transcripts and 4 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: G protein alpha subunit, helical insertion; G-protein alpha subunit, group S; Guanine nucleotide binding protein (G-protein), alpha subunit.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of low expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-18 hour embryonic stages, during late larval stages, during early pupal stages.
