Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: G-protein coupled photoreceptor activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: phototransduction, UV; absorption of UV light.
14 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: eye photoreceptor cell; ommatidium.
It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide.
Protein features are: GPCR, rhodopsin-like superfamily; GPCR, rhodopsin-like, 7TM; Opsin; Opsin RH3/RH4.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of no expression detected.
Peak expression observed in adult male stages.
