Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: dihydroorotase activity; aspartate carbamoyltransferase activity; carbamoyl-phosphate synthase (glutamine-hydrolyzing) activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: 'de novo' pyrimidine base biosynthetic process; glutamine metabolic process.
269 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: ovary; wing margin bristle; wing vein L4; posterior wing margin; wing; wing vein.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: ATP-grasp fold; ATP-grasp fold, subdomain 1; ATP-grasp fold, subdomain 2; Amidohydrolase 1; Aspartate carbamoyltransferase, eukaryotic; Aspartate/ornithine carbamoyltransferase; Aspartate/ornithine carbamoyltransferase, Asp/Orn-binding domain; Aspartate/ornithine carbamoyltransferase, carbamoyl-P binding; Carbamoyl-phosphate synthase, GATase domain; Carbamoyl-phosphate synthase, large subunit; Carbamoyl-phosphate synthase, large subunit, CPS-domain; Carbamoyl-phosphate synthase, large subunit, N-terminal; Carbamoyl-phosphate synthase, small subunit; Carbamoyl-phosphate synthase, small subunit, N-terminal; Carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase, large subunit, ATP-binding; Carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase, large subunit, oligomerisation; Dihydroorotase, conserved site; Glutamine amidotransferase type 1; Metal-dependent hydrolase, composite domain; Methylglyoxal synthase-like domain; Pre-ATP-grasp fold; PreATP-grasp-like fold.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderately high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 06-24 hour embryonic stages, during early larval stages, during early pupal stages, in adult female stages.
