Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: voltage-gated cation channel activity.
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: regulation of action potential; regulation of circadian sleep/wake cycle, sleep; detection of visible light; proboscis extension reflex; flight behavior; sleep; axon extension; larval locomotory behavior; regulation of synaptic activity.
67 alleles are reported.
The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 17 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system; organ system subdivision; nervous system; somatic cell; adult; synapse; adult segment; peripheral nervous system; multicellular structure; embryonic/larval neuron; non-connected developing system; adult cuticle; external compound sense organ.
It has 11 annotated transcripts and 11 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: BTB/POZ fold; BTB/POZ-like; Ion transport; Potassium channel, voltage dependent, Kv; Potassium channel, voltage dependent, Kv, tetramerisation; Potassium channel, voltage dependent, Kv1; Voltage-dependent potassium channel.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of moderate expression to a trough of no expression detected.
Peak expression observed during late pupal stages.
